Photochemical reduction of CO<inf>2</inf> on terrestrial planets
Original language description
The origin of methane on Mars and other terrestrial planets in their early or late stages of chemical evolution has never been explained in a satisfactory way. Here we propose a photochemistry-based scenario of carbon dioxide reduction to methane on semiconductor photocatalysts, such as TiO2. This approach takes inspiration in the same reaction chain used in environmental chemistry research since the late 1970s. On Mars, this scenario could unveil the origin of methane, which has been hotly debated recently. On young extra-terrestrial planets, this process could supply the atmosphere with reduced gases and facilitate organic synthesis and possibly the origin of life in these new born worlds.
