TLDR: MOXIE’s purpose is to demonstrate that oxygen can be made from the carbon dioxide in Mars’s atmosphere by using electricity to split it into a mixture of oxygen and carbon monoxide, via a process called electrolysis. In the new study, a team from Washington University in the US, demonstrate how electrolysis can be used efficiently to produce oxygen and hydrogen simultaneously from brine. The hydrogen from brine electrolysis is a bonus that you don’t get by electrolysis of carbon dioxide, and this could be used as rocket fuel as the study points out
