Martian Regolith Atmospheric Water Harvesters

This technology involves deploying specialized units on Mars that utilize the planet's regolith (surface dust and rocks) to absorb atmospheric water vapor, even in the extremely thin Martian atmosphere. The captured water is then extracted through heating or other processes, providing a crucial resource for future human missions.
