Space Colony Outer Walls Made of Bacteria to Produce Oxygen
Is allowing a colony of space in which the external walls of buildings are equipped with special bacteria between the two outer leaves of carbon nanotubes? Let me explain the idea for you. We create genetically modify and bacteria, based on the then colony building another layer of carbon tube of the live bacteria. The Space Colony's outer walls had closed bacteria needed to produce your oxygen Supplies.
This eating bacteria are either lunar dust or carbon dioxide on the surface of Mars. The bacteria produce oxygen, after he eats the CO2. The oxygen is collected and forced into the space module or colony to provide oxygen for the human inhabitants. The bacteria can also be encased in vast colonies of bacteria in something like a large solar cell panels, and this might include all the necessary oxygen in the room colony.
Too bad about the budget cuts for NASA Astrobiology Group, as this would be a perfect project for this Did. How much should the moon dust between the walls of the bacteria? Well, that depends on how much oxygen you to produce, with your genetically modified bacteria and even if you decide to use extra layers of lunar dust to protect the colony against solar flares of solar radiation. Consider all in this 2006.

Wow. This is a really good idea. At first I was thinking "why not just put algae in there?" but when you mentioned the Co2 atmosphere it made more sense. Also this isn't just a NASA thing. You would have to get geneticists in on this. Plus with a growing private space industry; i'm sure some company would love to pick up on this.
