Victoria Hartwick publishes assessment of Martian wind as a potential power source for future human habitats on Mars

A recent paper published by BAER Institute researcher Victoria Hartwick in Nature Astronomy shows the potential for wind turbines to help power future human exploration on the surface of Mars, a source of energy previously written off due to the planet’s thin atmosphere.

The project has been featured by multiple news outlets, including The Washington Post and Vice. You can read the full Nature Astronomy paper here.
