NASA planning one-way mission to colonise Mars

[Guest Esquilax]

Have you heard of this new conspiracy called 'Science'?

[North Aleng]

duno what that is sir but this is deeper than sunday school

[Guest Blue State Of Mind]

space is fascinating im all for exploring it.

blood ppl r dyin on earth n these NASA twats wanna frig billions on space travel. This sh*t will only benefit the rich.

Preservation of the human race>>>>>>>EVERYTHING ELSE

Seriously?

Space colonisation is a lot more important to the preservation of the human race.

Bullshit.

[Mythy Collins]

duno what that is sir but this is deeper than sunday school

lol

[North Aleng]

Hes right tho ...how people can bury themselves in such utter jonsense

im not sayin its a bad thing doe bcus its keeps people structured and gives people hope

[carpedeum]

You exalt yourselves as the eagle, though you set your nest among the stars,

From there I will bring you down.

[Mr. Gayle]

That picture is just mad, to think when I fly to JA I think its so long etc. LOL its nothing

[Davicious X]

Why would you wanna colonise mars when we ain't colonised the moon yet?

Crawl, walk, run.

[Mr. Gayle]

Mars is very like Earth, so they say

[Guest Loso]

cos they know the moon is manmade.

[Mr. Gayle]

In a studio

[spiderman]

it will take a long time probably after we are all dead, but if they keep at it then mars could well be looking a bit like earth after a couple 100 or so years. its called terra forming

whether its a sustainable project or economically viable, i dunno. doubt it very much lol.

we are actually better off building space colonies that can just move, eventually a movable earth bassically.

[thinkingthuglife]

actually this sh*t is impossible no fruit, veg or meat.

[Mr. Gayle]

Mars is not as close to Earth as Venus is, but it probably is the only planet in our solar system that we can colonize. But living there won’t be simple.

Mars is poorly suited for human habitation. There’s some ice at the poles and perhaps some water in underground repositories. Gravity is only 38 percent as strong as on Earth. The atmosphere is thin and consists mostly of carbon dioxide (95%). So colonists would have to either take air from Earth or make air on Mars. Plants efficiently separate the oxygen bound to carbon and therefore can make air we can breathe, so colonists should take plants along.

The Martian atmosphere is too thin to hold oxygen, which would just escape to space. So the plants would have to be cultivated in greenhouses and the oxygen they produce kept in flasks.

Mars has a very weak magnetic field, and its atmosphere offers little protection against radiation from space. So the Martian colonists would have to build radiation protection into their houses and wear thick suits. Unlike Earth, where most incoming meteorites burn up in the atmosphere, many meteorites crash dangerously onto the surface of Mars.

The Martian weather is awful. It’s cold: the average temperature of the southern hemisphere is minus 60 degrees Celsius; even at the equator, it’s seldom over zero. Winds are fierce and blow at speeds of several hundred kilometres an hour, and storms can last for months. The wind whirls up fine dust that penetrates everything and sticks to all surfaces, which literally would toss sand in the gears of vital mechanical and electronic equipment.

Today, there are no concrete, approved plans for sending people to Mars. The earliest date mentioned in official papers is 2019, which would be 50 years after the first Moon landing.

should instead of tryna change a whole planet just genetically modify a few brothers and start a new human race that can live in those conditions

then them man will have some hatred for earthlings and thus spark of the first intergalactic war

but since we created them we will know their weaknesses and win the war.

but a few of them will live among us on some infiltration ting with superpowers. we will call them mutants and hate them

[Davicious X]

I don't doubt that one day we will be able to do this, I'm just of the thinking that we've got oceans, we've got a moon. We've hardly conquered them yet and they wanna travel for up to 9 months to setup up base on the nearest planet without the possibility of return?!? That's just retarded.

Where's the city at the bottom of the ocean? We ain't even using the moon as a dumping ground. f*ck Mars we obviously ain't ready yet.

There u go. NASA save yr fukin money.

This ain't xmen nigga. wat would b the point in creating a new race that are billions of miles away?

lol.

thats gotta be the biggest spit in the face of God and the gift of life in general. to create a rival life form to end up beefing with.

if any alien race was to see that they would think we are actually pathetic insects infesting worlds.

[Guest Waka Flocka Dave]

tbh i must be the only advocate for like genetically changin how we work

like im suprised they aint invented a way or people making a baby in a machine in stead of giving birth

or artificial blood

and i really dont see why people arent funding stem cell research thats the biggest thing that could change the world n its being cockblocked

religion is holding back the technological advancement tbh, well not just them, but mostly them

i dunno man, i feel people are holding back

[Dubby]

I thought people couldn't even travel outside of earth's atmosphere without dying from radiation?

ye but if mars was terraformed we could get away with living on it, depending on the resulting atmosphere and how good it is compared to earth's.

[thinkingthuglife]

yous r mad thinking NASA is there 4 u. it stands 4 Niggaz Are Suffering Ahahhahahahahahahha!
