No ! Let's Not Go To Mars !

“We Shouldn’t Claim Land on Mars” is on of my five favorites because in this essay I had a strong opinion and was able to write it all down on paper to convince readers that we should not claim land on Mars. I also included accurate evidence that helped support my thesis statement.

We don’t know if there is a disease out in pace that could well be fatal. Being on a long trip to Mars could cause degeneration in muscles, bones, and your heart. Astronauts also need a bunch of exercise as well. Without it, he/she is likely to experience heart problems because it would be too weak to return to Earth’s gravity. Lastly, there is a LOT of radiation exposure in space. Gary Marin, director for advanced programs at the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration said, “Being away from the Earth for three years would mean every cell of your body would be transversed by a galactic ray, and we just don't know what that would do to people." All these health risks add up to an astronomical danger. We need to test how our body reacts to long trips in space before we take take the big leap for

NASA has never made a trip to Mars, but I don’t think the benefits of going to Mars will outweigh the risks. One of the reasons I don’t think we should go to Mars is because it would take eight months to get there. Yeah, it would be cool to be the first person on Mars but you are taking a lot of risks. That is just one of my three reasons I don’t think the benefits outweigh the risks.

The people that go to mars are risking their lives they can die of many things, including lack of oxygen and sickness. There is no atmosphere on Mars so therefore there is no oxygen which all humans need. The people will try to make an atmosphere by planting plants which let off oxygen, which could easily fail. Some

Ever since the origin of Earth was found, this question has wandered in the air. What will happen when Earth becomes uninhabitable? Scientists have turned to the next closest planet to Earth, Mars. There have been signs in the past of life on Mars. Many think that space exploration could be a reality. On the other hand, many think that the thought itself is unreasonable. Despite the sheet of ice found on Mars (Source D) and the possibility of extremophiles surviving in harsh conditions, the possibility of life on Mars is, indeed, a fantasy. The environment on Mars is too harsh to live in, there have been no signs of life on

Most of the mistakes made on Earth would not be repeated again on Mars. Mars should be colonized, as with the Moon. Inhabiting giant asteroids, other planets and moons and space stations in constant orbit around planets and moons would help solve the problem of overcrowding and world hunger. While it'll be extremely risky, expensive and take many years, but colonizing Mars will be a major factor in the long run. They are almost certain that it will happen eventually if all goes well, and I'm at least sure that it is possible. Space exploration is getting better and cheaper all the time. We still have to develop a lot of technology to be in a position where it is actually possible. Once we are at that stage, it will be relatively easy to go on and colonize the rest of the planets and moons within this solar system. Hopefully one day this will lead us to a point where we can move on to other solar systems and allow our evolutionary chain to expand and continue throughout the Universe. Earth will not be around forever. The main advantage to colonizing Mars is that we, as a species, we will survive the end of the world on Earth. The surface area of Mars is the same as the land area of Earth so that is a doubling of the available land for human use. Physical strength might well be reduced, but in a lower gravity environment, there will be less day to day stress on your body, so your organs should

Added to the economic costs to America, a venture to Mars causes substantial risk to the society. The environment and society are very important to human survival on Earth. Even though some people feel that exploring Mars may help understand the Earth better, and going to Mars will be a great scientific milestone, in my opinion exploring Mars is a bad idea. The atmosphere on Mars is about 100 times thinner than earth and it is not suitable for us to breath. It contains about 95% of carbon dioxide and little or no oxygen. This will make it very difficult for humans to survive there. Unlike Mars, which is not protected and is exposed to everything, the Earth is protected by the ozone layer. Exploring Mars will be dangerous to humans and very expensive to taxpayers. This will take years of planning and the mission will take years instead of days. The astronauts who go there may run out of oxygen and even fall sick. They will be unable to just return at any time. They have to wait until the earth aligns with Mars before they can return. All this could take months or even

Colonizing Mars would be very beneficial in many ways but it would also be very dangerous for humans. Are humans willing to take initiative and take the risk of traveling to Mars? If they are not ready then will the Earth slowly become destroyed and humans will regret never taking the risk? Humans now have the technology, knowledge and opportunity to do something that’s new, exciting and possibly

Space exploration funding has been drastically reduced since the conclusion of the Space Race. Even though the Space Race is no longer relevant, it has positively affected human civilization, and we should continue to invest in space exploration to continue this trend. The first and primary reason we should continue to work with space is to aid industries on earth. Most notable is the use of satellites for purposes such as commercial communications, the GPS system, and meteorology. The second reason is because humans have an inherent hunger for knowledge, and space funding helps us develop technology for seeing what’s beyond earth. Space probes such as New Horizons and telescopes such as the James Webb Telescope have expanded our knowledge

If the sun should die should humans go to mars? According to Laurie Vazquez's article " Could Human Actually Live On Mars" we can't. On Mars there are many challenges to a humans health. Some effects would include: Short term neural damage, memory problems, anxiety, and depression. There is also the problem that the capsules currently in use would be too cramped for the six month journey to mars. These are real and major problems keeping humans from relocating to

It is unbelievably expensive to reach Mars. To reach Mars the cost is billions of dollars to send just a couple people to Mars. It will cost more than 4 times the money it took to reach the Moon to reach Mars, since Mars is so far away. Furthermore it would cost way too much money, and therefore NASA or any other international space station should not send astronauts to Mars. Compared to the amount of money it takes to reach the Moon this expeditions cost is outrageous. If we obtain the money for this expedition and it fails, billions of dollars would be

Do you know that the closest planet to us that scientist say people can live in is the red planet also known as Mars. People believe that we shouldn't go to Mars because it would have enough water at first and second is that they haven't seeing any form of living creatures living there so we wouldn't have any food to depend on for food(Bill Nye). So far all we know is that if we were planning to go, it would take up 3 weeks of our military budget. Another reason we should stay is because it is too expensive because it would be 50 billion dollars the United States would spend on the expedition(Ashley Jay). Humans would have arguments on many things including who would be the leader of Mars and what would the flag for Mars be if we were to go

A Paper The two stories that I have chosen are “Send Your Children to the Libraries” written by Arthur Ashe, and “Why We Should Go To Mars” written by Kim Stanley Robinson. Both stories have a persuasive purpose, and both stories have a pattern of evaluation . Ashe’s story is about why it is so important for young black boys to focus on getting an education before trying to achieve their dreams as a professional sports star.

If that is OK with you then you should go to mars. At the same time if you go you don’t know if you will be alive when you get there.If you do go there is no going back.

No one should worry about going to mars, if you want to stay alive and keep the friends and family you have. How long do you think you would live on Mars? Not very long, if you can’t find food or water. Those are the main supplies that you will need to survive on Mars if you plan on living. Plus, i really don’t think you want to lose everything that you have here. You can't even have technology on mars because you won’t have any signal or service to get ahold of anyone on Earth. To choose to go live on mars is a very scary decision. You never know what could happen to you one Mars. There will be no one to help you. You will also be lost and confused. Nowhere to go, no place to live. Think about being lonely and how you will feel. According to Mars One “66% of the cost is associated with the “Take Off” and “The Landing.” Don’t go if you aren’t prepared and ready. When you go to mars you might regret on going. If you think that you can’t handle then you mise well not even think about
