Reverse Water-Gas Shift (RWGS) Reaction + Sabatier Reaction

[mokun]

In order to generate enough methane, the primary fuel to be used on Mars, we need to

1. Find underground ice or melting the polar ice cap to get water
2. Bring in sufficient amount of hydrogen to jump start the process

However, relying on electrolysis is NOT an optimized processes.

Hauling in hydrogen from Earth is too expensive.

That's why we need to run Reverse Water-Gas Shift Reaction (RWGSR) and Sabatier Reaction at the same time.

With both RWGS and Sabatier, we can produce methane and water at the same time.
