Artificial photosynthesis can give energy for futuristic space flight. But artificial photosynthetic devices can also operate in underwater systems and they can deliver energy for miniature robots. Artificial photosynthetic devices can also offer non-poisonous or non-nuclear solutions for many types of robots.
In some visions, the device, that supports small-size robots can use artificial photosynthesis to deliver energy for those robot bugs. So that system can operate as a support station that delivers missions for the robots and helps them to transport data to the control center. This kind of system can also use in many other places like delivering electricity for larger robots.
"Researchers from the University of Warwick propose using artificial photosynthesis devices, capable of harnessing sunlight to generate oxygen and recycle carbon dioxide, for sustainable energy solutions in space exploration. The devices could potentially be used on the Moon and Mars, improving the efficiency of space travel and informing improvements in Earth-based solar technologies. This is an artist’s concept of an artificial photosynthesis device on Mars". (ScitechDaily.com/Harnessing Photosynthesis: A Green Energy Solution for Martian Occupation & Space Exploration)
In that device, the mirror system can aim sunlight into the photosynthetic chamber. Similar photosynthetic devices can use in space suits. The system can remove carbon dioxide from the spacesuit. Similar systems can use in scuba-diving suits or miniature oceans. In that case, the laser ray will make it possible that photosynthesis works in the dark.
Biological- or natural photosynthesis is a thing that also can use in space flights. Or they can use in some other closed ecosystems. The alga that grows in the nutrient tank removes carbon dioxide from the air. And the same thing could be suitable for making the food for the crew.
When we think about photosynthesis the things like algae can use to clean the spacecraft or some other closed systems like submarine air. The photosynthesis of algae can remove carbon dioxide from the air. And another thing is that some algae are suitable for nutrients.
The idea is that if cells can use for many purposes that decrease the need for storage things in spacecraft. If that alga sends bioluminescence light it can make electricity by using photovoltaic cells. Those systems can give very electricity for nano-size microprocessors.
