Are you being obtuse or do you have a point? A Sabatier reactor has flown on the ISS, so they exist clearly. Audi had a pilot plant producing methane using this method as recently as 10 years ago.
It’s obvious the technology exists, and has been tested in space, and is viable on mars according to numerous studies dating back from the 80s to current day.
Do you have any proof to the contrary? I’m a huge space nerd so if there’s a fatal flaw in this plan I’d like to know.
My point is, if there’s not a simple box you can buy that makes methane on earth, we’re a long way away from a methane factory on Mars. Spacex has said they’re not working on it and hope someone else does. Without this magical machine there will be no people landing on Mars. Or, more specifically, no people leaving Mars.
My further point is, the whole Mars thing is just a bullshit ruse to trick us into funding the launch of capitalism into space.

Your ideology begets your conclusions. You are a troll, intentional or not.
Fair. But before I leave, let me challenge you to consider how your ideology might be determining your own conclusions.
