SPORE – Pressurized Oxygen

  • Sumário

  • Hi and welcome to Settle the Solar System, a Lunar Homestead podcast.

    This episode covers the second part of the Shielded Pressurize Oxygen Resource Extraction (SPORE) series, the Pressurized Oxygen component. This component is critical because it eliminates all the problems with mining and working in a vacuum.

    Key points
    • Engineering equipment to operate in vacuum is difficult and expensive.
    • SPORE pressurizes the mining and construction area with 100% oxygen at 48 kPa.
    • This oxygen will be obtained by processing Lunar rocks.
    • Using pure oxygen means Homesteaders won't lose any of their nitrogen-rich breathing gas.
    • Pressurizing the environment eliminates the problems with working in a vacuum and opens up many more options.
