The American company SpaceX is launching a program to use carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as a rocket fuel, said in Twitter founder of the company Elon Musk. He did not give details about the program, but clarified that this project will be useful for flights to Mars. The atmosphere of this planet is more than 95% carbon dioxide.
SpaceX plans to build a floating spaceport for launching rockets to the Moon and Mars and for hypersonic flights on Earth. Elon Musk hoped that the first man would be able to land on Mars in six years, and under favorable conditions, in four years. The businessman admits that the development of Mars will lead to human casualties.
About how much it costs the development of the Red Planet, read in the material of the magazine “Money” “Mars Attack”.
