Yes it’s true, using urine as rocket fuel is a real possibility. Scientists have cracked the code for a particular bacteria that converts ammonium (a key chemical in urine) into hydrazine, which is a type of rocket fuel. Now that scientists understand how hydrazine is made the next step is to enhance the conversion process. With millions of tons of ammonium deposited in wastewater every year, rocket fuel should never be in short supply.
