In addition, Mars is the best planet for living because of many reasons such as Mars is one of…

For more than fifteen years, the search for any sign of water on Mars has finally been found conclusive. Findings from NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) provided the definite evidence that water flows periodically throughout Mars. Using a spectrometer on the MRO, researchers saw hydrated minerals that are seen as streaks. These streaks fade in cooler seasons and seem to flow down as well as darken during the warmer seasons. These flows are called recurring slop linea and the finding of…

colonization of Mars. Knowing it is written by Ray Bradbury and during the 1950s; one should note that this is a Si-Fi fantasy. It begins in the year 2030 when the first astronauts are sent to Mars to explore. The Martian people keep killing the astronauts, because they believe they are illusions created by the mind (to clarify, Martians have telepathy). After a few waves of ships, the “deadly” disease chicken pox, spread by the first explorers, wipes out almost all of the native Martian life.…

Mars has a very harsh environment not yet suitable for humans. However, compared to other planets in space, Mars is humanity's best chance at attempting to colonize. The colonization of the Red Planet is drawing near due to many different space venturing companies coming together. Furthermore to this topic, large debate is only rising since the opinions of many are strikingly divided. "Mars today, despite its subzero temperatures (on average -63°C), thin non-radiation and savage global dust…

grew up in a mining colony, on Mars, and is a "Red." In the society of the Solar System, each person is given specific color, based on the class that the person is. Darrow's class, the Red class, is considered to be the lowest class in the Solar System, as the Red's jobs are to mine Helium-3, which is a valuable resource on Mars. Darrow, like many other Reds, is driven by the Laurel. The Laurel is a reward given to the family that mines the most Helium-3. Despite his life-risking efforts to…

While the idea of living on Mars may seem worthless and impractical, the colonization of Mars could have a worthwhile effect on not only the Earth, but the Universe. Space travel has been on hold since the space race in the sixties, but given the current spark in curiosity and drive, the idea of going to Mars is becoming a reality. Having an alternative Earth may seem frivolous, but at the rate at which the Earth itself is depleting, an alternative home planet is the most viable option for…
