A Scottish charity dedicated to providing life-saving surgeries to children in developing countries has partnered with NASA to bring advanced oxygen generation technology to low-resource hospitals around the globe.
The project aims to reduce child mortality caused by preventable respiratory diseases, a leading killer in low-income nations where dependable oxygen supply is often unavailable.
The technology, dubbed the Medical Ceramic Oxygen Generator (M-COG), has been developed by NASA over several years with space missions in mind, but it could soon be saving lives closer to home.
