The Decolonization Of Mars

Did you know that Earth is Dying! Yes, it is in fact dying, although slowly the destruction of Earth is inevitable. So what can we do; Although risky space travel may be the solution, specifically Mars. This traveling is essential to our survival, this is not because of the Earth dying it is because as human we strive to be the first and seek out stimulus. Think of the future, the next generation, and… Space.

Since the beginning of time, people have been curious, and are always trying to explore. But now it is 2017, and we have to understand what we should do and what we shouldn’t do. People today have a good idea about the hazards of space travel and know the consequences space travel can have for people. And after considering Andy Weir's statement regarding travel to Mars, I am of the opinion that we as a nation should not fund a manned mission to Mars in the near future because it will be very expensive, we have a larger need to explore places here on Earth, and it purposes a large danger to the people traveling in space.

The trip is about eight months long and there is no natural source of water on Mars. There could be a disease on Mars that’s not on Earth and if someone gets it there are no doctors or medicine on Mars. One of the people could get hurt, for example, someone can receive a huge cut and die from loss of blood since there are no doctors on Mars. No one knows what will happen if you get a cut on mars the dust could infect the cut. Therefore people should not go to mars if they don’t know how dangerous it is.

Humans have always been interested in the idea of exploring space. the scientists, astronauts and researchers have spent decades looking for life on other planets. Mars is the most favorable place in the solar system, other than Earth, for human habitation. It is also the closest planet to Earth. Even though some researchers claim that exploring Mars will help us to understand the Earth better, and a manned mission to Mars is better for humanity, opposing sending a manned mission to Mars for these reasons: because the cost of the exportation is not worth the risk involved. this exploration will have a negative effect on Americans. Mars exploration should be halted because of the cost to the economy, the risk to society and the lack

Like mentioned before, many people are concerned about the safety of the astronauts and the cost of the trips. Of course these hazards would lead people to believe that traveling

Should humans really risk leaving earth forever to colonize Mars? There are so many high death risks! Colonizing Mars could be dangerous and risky due to deadly dust storms, a sub zero average temperature, and radiation that could possibly kill you.

In this argumentative essay, I will discuss how the manned mission to Mars is being planned and its specifications. Furthermore, how the mission, if executed successfully, will be mankind’s greatest accomplishment yet. However, I will attempt to prove that this mission will inevitably fail due to the unready team and its defective circumstances.

The last reason why you shouldn’t go on this trip to Mars is because finding ways to live there would be difficult. First of all, work will have to be done in order to find water. When water is needed, you would have to break up the soil. Being able to expand will also be limited due to the amount of water and oxygen that is on Mars. Lastly, the environment is very unforgiving. If a small mistake is made in the atmosphere, you could easily become injured or possibly die. The Mars One website says, “Mars is an unforgiving environment where a small mistake or accident can result in large failure, injury, and

The NASA space program has had enormous impacts on the world. Thanks to NASA the United States has explored thousands of celestial bodies throughout the galaxy with telescopes, rovers, and in the moon 's case, people. In the next decade, NASA plans to expand the United State’s human exploration to more than just the moon. A Mars mission has been in NASA’s eye for quite a while now and with technology advancing every day, they feel it is time to send men and women to the red planet. Some believe the journey could prove too dangerous for humans; however, through research and development scientists can find ways to safely transport astronauts to and from Mars. This is a necessary step in the country 's advancements in health, technology and

Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. This red planet is 3,389.5 kilometers in size. In pop culture, Mars was a symbol of war and aggression for thousands of years. The kilometer size was very shocking to me. Today, mars is covered in toxic soil and zapped with radiation as it says in the "Pop Culture Mars" article. That seems very dangerous. Mars' diameter is half of Earth's diameter. In the article, "Pop Culture Mars," it states that Mars will soon be a place that humans will soon be able to settle at. Mars has changed over many of years. It all started BC (before Christ). I honestly believe Mars has Earth-like features. Studies have shown that there was water found in Mars. I honestly have no idea about what technology that would be made

With cities growing, forests get paved to make space for the new generations. problems like, deforestation, global warming, habitat destruction, and climate change are being a bigger, and bigger issue for the planet. By colonizing Mars, we could spread out the human population, giving Earth a chance to regrow, and transform into the planet it was before. We could have our air from pollution by factories, help our water stay clean, and save forests by moving factories to Mars. Mars on its own, has little vegetation, and it could be very beneficial to our planet if we could, in other words, give it a break from humanity, to let forests and plants grow

In the reading, the author claims that the project of sending humans to Mars would not be practical pointing out 3 problems of support. However, finding all the problems questionable and implausible, the lecturer repudiates the claim and present some solutions for these problems so that the mission would be possible.

NASA researchers Nicole Herrman, Douglas Craig, and Patrick Troutman in their article “The Evolvable Mars Campaign-Study Status” outline characteristics of the Martian environment that can potentially aid a manned mission to Mars. Even though the environment on Mars is harmful to a living Earth organism (without a spacesuit) it aids our production of creating a stable environment for us and using our equipment. Some of the ways the NASA researchers have found about the Mars environment that can be use an accrued man mission comes in play of its been atmosphere Mars is moons in the lack of oxygen.

The environment of Mars is very hostile, because the atmosphere is 100 times thinner than earth. 95% of Mars is carbon dioxide, and living things cant breathe in carbon dioxide. It only has 1/3 of the amount of gravity that we have

And before they are chosen to be candidates they have to compete against thousands of other applicants”(Koerth-Baker 155). After being approved to fly an astronaut is finished training. If that astronaut is chosen to take a trip to Mars they have to take a humongous trip through space. “Mars would require a six-month journey to the planet, an 18-month stay and a six-month trip back” (Daniels, 1). Not only is the journey to Mars massive, it also contributes to many major health problems.
