"Revolutionary Robot Chemist Paves the Way for Mars Colonization with Oxygen Production"

A study published in Nature Synthesis suggests that a robot chemist powered by artificial intelligence could efficiently produce oxygen for human survival on Mars. The study highlights the challenge of finding the optimal oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts among the million possibilities on Mars, which could take humans a lifetime to accomplish. By utilizing AI robots, the process could be completed within six weeks, without the need for human intervention. This advancement in robot chemistry could pave the way for human exploration and colonization of extraterrestrial planets.
