NASA has done it! Check out this mini reactor that was used to create oxygen on Mars.

Hmm, scientists could use plasma technology to create oxygen in Mars and other space colonies.
A great idea in theory, but it would take so much time and effort to create and sustain a breathable atmosphere on Mars.

Terraforming Mars would make starting a human colony on the planet so much easier.
