Exploring Venus with Electrolysis

Michael HechtMassachusetts Institute of Technology Innovation: Using Solid Oxide Electrolysis, EVE enables balloon exploration of Venus with unlimited duration by replenishing the initial buoyant gas with CO and O2 from the ambient CO2 derived using Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOE) . CO and O2 can also be used for power during the ~50 hr night-time traverse […]
