Two articles published in the New York Times present contrasting perspectives on the topic. On one hand Lawrence M. Krauss argues that The trip to Mars is definitely worth the risk and resources, just not the trip home. On the other hand, however, Ed Regis contends that Mars is a miserable planet that is not worth the effort. After…

might be to try to live on Mars. President Obama and President Trump have been supporting Nasa to be able to send people to Mars by the 2030’s. Astronauts have had many “trials” (living in a small space with other people for 6-12 months) around the world. Nasa thinks it will take about 6 months each way to Mars and the astronauts would have to live on Mars for about 2 years as they wait for the planets to realign for their trip home. The astronauts have a plan to colonize Mars, grow plants and…

The idea that Mars could be hospitable to human life is still under question, however the question of water on Mars is indubitably unambiguous. And with the new breaking scientific news, the long lasting question of water on Mars has finally been answered. “New findings from NASA’S Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) provide the strongest evidence yet that liquid water flows intermittently on present-day Mars( Liquid Water para 1)”. According to this new theory, empirical data from NASA shows…

bombs that can cleanse entire planets of life. This is our home. Sadly, we can’t live here forever. The concept of expanding our domain isn’t just about exotic Martian vacations or low-gravity sports. Earth may not be habitable forever. The ever-impending “consequences” of climate change, nuclear war, and a slew of astral natural disasters threaten the existence of all life on Earth. It’s time to take a rocket ship out of the nest and on to the next planet, Mars. As the second step in our next…

doesn't Mars have oceans? A recent breakthrough discovery has confirmed that liquid water does exist on Mars. This means there is the potential for life to exist here. However, this water is very minimal compared to previous levels of water found on Mars. A study done by Geronimo Villanueva and Michael Mumma of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center reveals that Mars used to have at minimum seven times as much water as it does today with there being enough water to cover almost 20% of mars’…

scientists have researched whether intelligent life exists on planets other than Earth. Scientists have sent many different telescopes and devices into space to try and capture life on other planets. They have been trying to find life on Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus. Scientists think Mars has the best chance of sustaining life. Scientists have done research as to if each planet in the Milky Way Galaxy can sustain life. What they found was that every single…

Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. It is known as the Red Planet. Many scientist and engineers have been trying to get people up to Mars and colonize it. However, we shouldn’t go up to Mars in an attempt to colonize the planet. It would be very time consuming. Along with this, there would be many health issues we would have to solve. Also, a lot of safety concerns are also present. Here is why we shouldn’t go and colonize Mars. If we did go to Mars, it would take humans a really long…

To understand the Geology of Mars, or any other planet, it is necessary to have knowledge of formation of the Universe that lead to the assimilation of galaxies and all contained within them. This is essay will look at the beginning of the universe and the chemical reactions which led to the formation of stars, planets, moons, asteroid belts, comets and meteorites. Then, focusing on Mars, discuss the planets geological features and the instruments used to study them, from its inner core to upper…
