Oh good! We're figuring out how to make methane on Mars.

One sees these sorts of things, and one doesn't really want to believe it:

Production of Synthetic Methane for Aerospace Applications: A Mars Case Simone Romegialli, Antonio Tripodi, Alice Gramegna, Matteo Tommasi, Gianguido Ramis, and Ilenia Rossetti Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research 2025 64 (1), 190-208

It's magical and worthy, because it involves that miracle stuff, that's saving the burning world, hydrogen or so we're urged to believe.

In case you ever need it, by the way, the rocket equation can be found within.

It's not like we have anything better to do.

Sigh...
