Perseverance recorded Sound of Mars Air Compressor in work utilising MOXIE oxygen-generator

Perseverance rover’s MOXIE instrument was recorded on SuperCam microphone while successfully producing oxygen on Mars, achieving an impressive purity level of 98% or higher. This high purity is crucial as it ensures the oxygen generated is free from impurities, making it safe for human consumption and various applications on the red planet. By maintaining such a level of purity, MOXIE demonstrates its potential to reduce reliance on Earth-based resources for future manned missions to Mars. The efficiency and reliability of MOXIE make it a valuable technology for establishing sustainable life-support systems and enabling long-duration crewed missions. Rover’s ability to record the sound of MOXIE during oxygen generation is incredible. MOXIE instrument, designed by NASA, successfully extracted 122 grams of oxygen, equivalent to what a small dog breathes in 10 hours. At peak efficiency, MOXIE produced 12 grams of oxygen per hour, surpassing NASA’s original goals. Including of high-resolution images and visualizations, such as mine renders in the end, enhances the understanding and appreciation of these significant achievements. In this video, you will find more information and details about the groundbreaking oxygen generation capabilities of the MOXIE instrument on Mars.
