The idea of In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) is essential for a Martian colony. As part of the Mars Direct initiative it aims at the production of propellant material for a Mars return mission. The following issues are specifically considered:
- Sabatier/Water Electrolysis Process
- Reverse Water-Gas Shift Reaction
- Fischer-Tropsch Reaction
- Water Electrolysis
- Carbon dioxide electrolysis
- Atmosphere absorption methods
