PyroScience Oxygen Gas Sensor FDO2 in Action on Mars!

The PyroScience team is excited that our OEM solution FDO2 has landed on Mars with the NASA Rover Perseverance. The quality and robustness of the oxygen gas sensor FDO2 convinced the NASA and JPL engineers to integrate it into the scientific experiment MOXIE on board of the rover. This experiment aims to produce for the first time oxygen from carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere, which would be a crucial step for preparing future human exploration: oxygen can be used as propellant for rockets and serve future explorers for breathing.
