Mars Dust: The Levitating 'Magnetic Razors' That Kill Machines ๐Added:
It is microscopic broken glass.
And because Mars is an incredibly dry environment, there is no humidity in the air to conduct static electricity away.
This means these little shards of glass pick up a constant electrostatic charge.
They [snorts] aren't just sitting on the ground waiting for you. They're levitating.
The electric fields in the Martian atmosphere lift them up, turning the air into a floating sea of magnetic razors.
They stick to your solar panels. They cling to your suit, and most importantly, they migrate into your machines.
Now, imagine you're the lead engineer on the first mission. You know you can't bring enough fuel from Earth to get back home because fuel is heavy.
If you tried to carry the propellant for the return trip, you'd need a rocket the size of a skyscraper just to lift the gas.
So, >> [music] >> you have to make it there. NASA calls this in-situ resource utilization, >> [music] >> which is just a fancy way of saying you're going to build a chemical factory on the red planet.
You need to mine ice from the frozen ground. You need to suck carbon dioxide out of the thin air.
You need compressors, pumps, and valves.
