A comment on Mars likely to have enough oxygen to support life: study. Parent comment
- Very dense rich atmosphere, carbon dioxide 96.5%
- The pressure at its surface is equivalent to that at a depth of nearly 1 km under Earth's oceans; while it is 20 times less dense than fluid water
- It is the closest planet to Earth and has similar mass and size
- It has stable constant surface temperatures everywhere at any time around 450 C
Most semiconductors will not work in this conditions. This is the problem we may need to solve first.
