Where Would You Move To Mars?

Within the story “Follow the Water” by Jennifer L. Holm, you can find multiple scientific facts, and some facts are included in “What Would It Take To Live There”. For example on the bottom of the first page you will see a line about the radiation. “The cabin is made up of thick black plastic, sturdy enough to protect us from the solar radiation, which can kill you give you terrible skin cancer.” Since Mars doesn’t have a magnetic field, you can be exposed to this deadly radiation. “Some of them had to have their noses removed.” Which is one of the events that could happen when your body is exposed. Another subject she talks about is how to temperature is -81 degrees on mars, and that is a true statement. “It’s could on Mar’s colder then you

Even though Earth and Mars are in the same solar system and orbit the same sun, Mars’ atmosphere and the planet itself is a lot different from Earth. Mars is 142 million miles away from the sun, with a year being 687 days long. It is about half of Earth’s size, and is one tenth of Earth’s mass. Mars’ atmosphere is carbon based, containing 95.3% carbon dioxide, and also it only has .3% water vapor (Source for %). The average temperature on Mars is -81 degrees Fahrenheit which is approximately -62 degrees Celsius (NASA). Mars’ atmosphere is also very thin, so it does not “allow liquid water to exist at the surface for long” (Newsela). Also Mars has a lot less gravity, Earth has 62.5% more gravity than Mars does (NASA). Mars’ environment would not be very hospitable for human life.

Imagine going on a six billion dollar rocket ship and never seeing your family or friends again. The astronauts will risk their lives because it is a dangerous expedition and could easily fail if the people die from lack of oxygen. Colonizing Mars is a terrible idea there is no natural source of water, if Mars One sends them they cannot come back once they arrive there, and someone could get sick and die before they get there.

Richard, an author for the website GOVTEEN Global Community, wrote an article briefly explaining why we as a nation, should not go to Mars. Some of the key points of his argument against going to Mars stressed that the financial cost would be too high, it would require several new spacecraft and ground habitats, and several new technologies that currently do not exist. He also was concerned about the budget cuts that have already stripped the National Aeronautical Space Administration (NASA) to a shell of what the space program used to be. He also stressed that we are still in an armed conflict that has put a strain on our nation, economically and emotionally.

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 quote above gives a quick biography on Mars. Mars is a dry, desert like planet that is between Earth and the Asteroid belt and Jupiter. It is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second closest to Earth (first being Venus). Mars is just over one half the size of Earth and has just over one third of Earth 's gravity, and the surface area on Mars is nearly the same as land area on Earth. It has a very weak magnetic field, so a lot of the Suns radiation gets to the surface. Its atmosphere is less than 1% as dense as Earth’s and 95% of it is carbon dioxide. 1 year on Mars is 687 days and has an average surface temperature of -62 degrees Celsius. But Mars does have its similarities, It travels only 4 miles per second slower around the sun, its tilt is 25 degrees, compared to Earth 's 23.5. 1 day on Mars is just 41 minutes longer than Earths, and Mars’ surface temperature range is the closest in the Solar System to Earth’s. http://www.universetoday.com/22603/mars-compared-to-earth/. But

Mars is a planet that we are still learning and discovering new things about. They have landed rovers on the planet and has discovered water under the surface of the planet. If they were to send humans to mars it would help discover more things that a robot couldn't do that a person can. With a person's view it would be better because the person would be able to describe it and show proof.

Mars has the basic human assets. Mars has oxygen, and also, allows people to jump higher and run faster. Though the people on Mars would have to filter

The polar ice caps are melting, thousands are homeless or in poverty, and Earth is losing its resources fast, yet scientists and other people are trying to go to Mars, a whole new planet with, at least, just as many problems as Earth. Colonizing Mars has been a dream for a long time, and that’s what everyone thought it was for them until about now, but this brings up the question of whether humans should colonize Mars. Colonizing Mars has many problems, including money, resources, and global warming and pollution.

There has been a lot of talk about mars. Out of all the potential options, most have settled that mars is the best for humans. The enthused Frank Stratford, in an article, says, “let’s do this thing…Let’s approach this with the benefits of six decades of spaceflight, push through the costs and in one risky megaproject of settling Mars, reach to the benefits of advancing… so that we and future generations can grow from our new discoveries on Mars.” Indeed, Despite inherent risk, colonizing mars is both a priority and a goal for the advancement of our species.

Do you dislike leaving your house? Can you imagine leaving your home planet? It doesn’t sound very reassuring does it? We think moving to Mars is a bad idea! Mars One was started by people from the Netherlands and the United States. It is a mission to move people to Mars. The mission is set to launch in 2026.

There are a lot of people that have signed up to be sent to Mars. People want to go to Mars for different reasons. Some people want to go because they want to run away from the problems on Earth, but won’t there be even more problems on Mars then there would be on Earth.

We think NASA should continue to study and go to Mars. This planet is livable and Mars way have water underneath its surface. From this report you should see that Mars is worth our time unlike others it may be able to terraformed. The days on Mars is close to Earth's day. Mars is 24 hours and 37 minutes and Earths is 24

Is colonizing Mars really worth risking your life? Do the people going care if they get hit by a meteor, or the oxygen filters get clogged and the people have to either breathe carbon dioxide, or breathe dust? Colonizing Mars should not be necessary because getting there is very hard, the gravity is extremely low, and the average temperature is below freezing.

Humans can’t live on Mars because if we spend money on space travel and find out when they get to Mars there is no way humans can live there then it’s a waste of money, time, fuel and people.“Since space travel has revolutionized the cost of space travel will be too much and rise. “It’s costly in terms of money and risk.” ( Should the U.S government fund space exploration 254). No, the United States should not fund space travel.
