In this video, we introduce the MOXIE experiment and its recent test on Mars. First, we discuss the difference between Earth and Mars's atmosphere. Mars's atmosphere is much thinner but is primarily Carbon Dioxide. The MOXIE experiment converts the carbon dioxide to oxygen and carbon monoxide using electrochemistry (solid oxide electrolysis). During the first experiment, NASA generated 5 grams of oxygen. MOXIE is an experiment onboard the Perseverance rover.

Secondly, we look at some of the uses for oxygen on Mars, including breathing for astronauts, an ingredient to generate water, and as an oxidizer for rocket fuel.

We also consider the design of MOXIE, stepping through the compressor, preheater, and SOXE unit to understand how the entire process works.
