- The ESA is working on technology that will extract oxygen from moon dust (regolith).
- A cooperative of nations is working to bring fusion powered electricity power plants to reality. It's a slow process as they learn how to maximize what we know about materials technology and superconductivity to generate temperatures approaching 150,000,000 degrees Celsius. They've gotten to 100,000,000 C so far. Ambitious estimates get us there within 30 years. If we do, it will mean practically unlimited power from the components of ocean water, in a manner similar to the sun's energy.
