Travel Day 2 - Afternoon
Our primary financial sponsor in the pharmaceutical industry needs you to review plans for the construction of the Mars Rust Refinery, a facility on Mars that converts the copious amounts of rust on the planet into its component parts: oxygen and metal. Our interest in this facility is in the methods for supplying critical oxygen needs to many people, plants, and species throughout the solar system.
Assignments
We recommend you study these preliminary materials before verifying the plans.

With its high market price and limited supply, what is the best method for deciding who and/or what gets oxygen? Are there certain populations, species, or locations that should be prioritized? Should we operate on a “first-come-first-serve" basis?
-
Is there a method to reduce market price and/or availability without collapsing the interplanetary economy?
