Mars Colony

The Mars society has spent over one million dollars on a mock Mars simulation to try and help eliminate some of the logistical and emotional conflicts on a real trip to Mars. In the article, “Getting Ready to Live on Mars”, it argues that the Mars simulations, costing one thousand dollars per person help get rid of some of the logistical and emotional issues that may occur on a real mission to Mars. The central idea of the passage is that Mars simulations are helping eliminate some logistical and emotional conflicts that might occur on a real trip to Mars, and is developed by using expert opinions and quotes.

How can a person become a successful leader by being humble? Dr. Steven Riser (2004), writes in his book Cultivating Christian Convictions, a person can become humble by remaining true to his God-given convictions. Todays’ professions are changing. They are not as integritized as they once were in the past. In fact, they are sensibly drama shows displaying mostly false characters. When I was, a kid watching television shows,

The most important characteristic for effective governmental leaders today is being genuine. The typical voter in America receives most of its political information from the media. Many times, the portrayal of politicians is distorted in a way that exclusively highlights characteristics that puts them in high pedestals. Our system is conditioned to see government officials as perfect, however, those who are honest and strive to have a natural connection with their constituents make the most relatable and effective governmental leaders in our democratic system today.

There’s a quote that says, “stay humble in the spotlight and true in the dark”. Leaders have to do the right thing—even when no one is watching. People may stand in the way of making the right decision. Leading also requires taking a narrower path. Choosing to take the long road—and sticking to it—is one of the many sacrifices of being a leader.

People are going to colonize Mars! Colonizing Mars is a great idea because of NASA technology, Mars resources, and human capabilities.

To have humility is to be humble and modest--It means doing something for someone but not acknowledging doing so. According to the The Huffington Post, studies have shown people tend to achieve more happiness when they're not actually trying to. A well known leader, Pope Francis, is a great example of having humility. Britannica School states that Pope Francis was born with the name Jorge Bergoglio, but he took the name of Francis in honor of St. Francis of Assisi. Saint Francis washed the feet of twelve criminal offenders on Holy Thursday in imitation of Jesus washing his apostles feet before his death.

Humility – It refers to the ability to put one’s own accomplishments and talents in a proper perspective (Patterson, 2003). Servant leaders put the interest of followers first and accept contributions from others.

Everyone has to choose a colony and has to go through training. I chose The Mars Force because of their great propaganda and how they planned ahead by choosing to land by a mountain for mining purposes. Their flag looks like outer space with mars in the middle and a person on each side. Their government is oligarchy because a group of specialists own the colony. The training

Let’s start off with what we thought was the most important task we needed to do first. We think that having a leader at our colony is critical for the colonies success. The leader will help us with many things, but the main thing he will do, keep order and prevent our colony from falling into a crisis. He could help us make an alliance with the natives, and keep our colony working. He could also help us not to suffer from starvation. If we didn't have a leader, then the colony would fall into a crisis, no one would be working to benefit the colony, and we would all probably die or suffer from starvation.

Throughout the extensive history of the earth, the human race has been striving to achieve great accomplishments and leave a beneficial impact on the world. In order to do this, the human race has made technological advancements and broadened their knowledge about the universe, which is precisely what colonizing and settling humans on Mars will accomplish. Even though the journey to Mars will be unsafe and unaffordable, it is advantageous because Mars is the most scientifically similar planet to Earth, it will provide a difficult challenge that will expand our species’ knowledge, and it will ensure the survival of the human race. Overall, colonizing Mars will be a significant accomplishment in the earth’s history and will identify a period

Mars. The Red Planet. What would it take to survive here? The temperature is a big problem. While Earth has an average temperature of 61 degrees Fahrenheit, Mars is quite the opposite with an average temperature of -67 degrees Fahrenheit. We would need heaters everywhere. Radiation poses another threat. Mars has a weak magnetic field that does not keep out much radiation like Earths does. That means we would need radiation proof buildings. Water would not be a problem. Under the dry layer of soil, there is an ice table that we could extract water from. Breathing is another story, though. Mars' atmosphere is made of Carbon-Di-Oxide and would be impossible to breathe. We could use oxygen masks to solve this problem. Time is different there too.

Imagine if you are traveling at lightning speed with only a few people traveling with you. In a few months you will be on a planet with only 3 other people. would you go? Of course not.

Power is supplied to the ISS via 2,500 square meters of solar cells (Taranovich, 2014). Of course, as the station

Mars is around half the diameter and a few percent of the mass of Earth. Mars’ position is also a significantly longer distance from the sun compared to Earth’s. Mars once was a warm planet with water and a thick atmosphere, it could have been a little twin planet next to us, but sadly Mars is now a desolate planet with very little atmosphere. Mars’ surface water dried up over time, and Mars became known as the ‘red planet’. For years scientists have wondered what happened to Mars’ atmosphere. With no idea how that happened to Mars, people were terrified of the thought of Earth turning into a planet like mars and didn’t know what would happen to its inhabitants.

Mars Inc., cares about commitment and their organizational culture is built upon five principles: Quality; Responsibility; Mutuality; Efficiency and Freedom. Mars has practiced these principles for generations and plans to continue far into the future. “The company’s objective is the manufacture and distribution of food products in such manner as to promote a mutuality of services and benefits among all stakeholders” (Forrest E. Mars, Sr., 1947). Mars is a private, family-owned business and states mutuality (teamwork) and freedom are what makes them stand out from other organizations.
