Random facts:
1. Sugars, including C6H12O6, are most often extracted from plant materials.
2. Plants use CO2 and produce and expel oxygen.
3. Enoch found a large room with lots of tubes and stuff that kinda sounded to me like a large reactor.
Could it be that the Ipsos, using some type of geo-thermal heat, are utilizing the CO2-rich Martian atmosphere to raise some highly-efficient variety of plant life to provide the source for both their necessary oxygen and their beloved crystalline carbohydrate? If so, they must have a fairly large water source somewhere. If there's water, human life can be supported in much the same manner.
Hmmm...maybe there's hope for your trip to Mars after all, Sky.
