Abstract
FIELD: physics.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to modifying parameters of the space environment, particularly the atmosphere of Mars. The invention can be used for experimental ground-based processing of said technology in an artificial environment. The method includes heating a mixture of clay minerals and table salt while a wind current containing mineral particles of carbonate dust passes over said mixture. Chemical reactions between said substances release carbon dioxide gas, the accumulation in the Martian atmosphere of which increases the mass and volume of the atmosphere. Temperature of the atmosphere rises owing to the greenhouse effect.
EFFECT: modification of the Martian environment using resources and phenomena inherent to the atmosphere of the planet, particularly dust storms.

Description
translated from Russian
The invention relates to the field of space research and technology and can be used for building up and warm atmosphere of Mars, as well as for experimental study of this technology in an artificial environment under terrestrial conditions.
The object of the invention is to increase the mass, volume and temperature of the atmosphere of Mars using its resources and phenomena peculiar to its atmosphere, in particular dust storms.
Said object is achieved due to the fact that according to the inventive method to build and warm atmosphere Mars mixture of clay minerals and salt is heated by passing over the wind stream mixture containing carbonate dust particles such as dust from the group of carbonate minerals.
The invention is characterized by the following essential feature: heating a mixture of clay minerals and salt while passing over the mixture wind flow containing dust particles carbonate.
Said essential feature allows to increase the mass, volume and temperature of the atmosphere of Mars using its resources and phenomena peculiar to its atmosphere, in particular dust storms.
When heated by known means and methods the mixture of clay minerals and salt they chemically react with each other to form hydrogen chloride. The mixture can be used is available in Mars under water which, passing from ice in the liquid state, will dissolve the hydrogen chloride to produce heat and form a mist, which is a tiny droplets of hydrochloric acid to be captured wind flow and react chemically with particles of carbonaceous dust evolution of carbon dioxide. The hydrogen chloride can react chemically with the carbonate dust and no water, but also carbon dioxide. Release carbon dioxide will accumulate in the atmosphere of Mars, uvelilichivaya mass and volume of the atmosphere and raising its temperature due to the "greenhouse effect" at warming sunlight.
Thus, heating a mixture of clay minerals and salt while passing over the mixture wind flow containing particles carbonate dust due to chemical reactions between these substances with the evolution of carbon dioxide due to its accumulation in the atmosphere allows to increase the mass, volume and temperature of Mars atmosphere when it is used resources and phenomena peculiar to its atmosphere, in particular the phenomenon of dust storms.
