Colonization of Mars

self-sufficient, and civilized society across the planet of Mars. Hopefully this society will thrive and expand into its own human colony. Everybody is affected by the law and no exceptions are to be made based on social status, religion, ethnicity, or any other irrelevant characteristics. The purpose of law is to govern a nation, as opposed to being controlled by arbitrary decisions of government officials. 2. Authority After a stable environment on Mars has been established (post-arrival),…

Earth, where we live. What you happen if we had no sun? What would happen if there was only poisonous gases? Earth as we know it could have turned out a lot different then it is just by these little things we didn’t know was out there, in space. Earth’s atmosphere is thick enough to prevent poisonous rays of radiation from getting to it. The earth’s rotation is gradually slowing down because of the moon. ‘’As a single footstep will not make a on the earth, so a single thought will not make a…

Is ''The Martian'' Movie Realistic? I recently went to the theater to see Matt Damon's newest picture, ''The Martian''. In it, Damon stars as Mark Watney, a NASA astronaut who finds himself stuck on Mars after a freak dust storm forces him and his team (Ares III) off of the planet. When Watney is struck by debri before he can enter the ship home, the rest of the crew is forced to assume he's dead and leave without him. What they don't know is that Watney survived, due to the debri actually…

Thanks to its carved topography, researchers have always suspected that Mars was once home to several rivers, lakes, and perhaps even oceans. There has even been some speculation about the existence of frozen water deep beneath the ground. However, finding evidence of liquid water in the present day, has been a little elusive. That is why NASA's September 28th announcement that confirmed the detection of liquid brine on the Red Planet caused so much excitement. The first indication of the…

by utilizing three telescopes to provide a view of space and communicate with space stations. JPL Robotics also created the Curiosity Rover, currently on Mars. This made history, as it was the first to drill for sample collection on another planet. This also led to another groundbreaking discovery - Yellowknife Bay, a geologic formation on Mars, was once habitable. Avi Okon was able to work on Curiosity, and specifically,…

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…

fascinated with the stars ever since the beginning of time. Our first manned mission to the moon was Apollo 11. It was a highlighted moment in history when the impossible was accomplished. Now our mission is to find a planet that supports life. NASA thinks Mars can do this. This will not happen for decades unless NASA gets more funding. While space exploration creates pollution, more funding from the government would greatly improve NASA's progression in space exploration because it would create…

Missions Synopsis: My sci-fi paper will detail a futuristic mission to Mars, several decades in the future. Previous rover missions have paved the way for a colony on Mars, and a human crew has at last been sent to the red planet to finish preparations for the settlement. Logistics such as rocket propulsion, humans in space, and robot-human missions will be included, as well as details concerning setting up a colony on Mars. Robot in Space: The Pathfinder Mission: Robotic missions have always…

Ethical Approach To ‘Life on Mars’ With the current state of Earth as global warming causes extreme weather changes set to intensify through the coming years, combined with the depleted level of resources available, due to unsustainable extraction, consumption and waste, and the rapid advances in technology, the race to colonise Mars is becoming increasingly alluring. At present, there are many interested government bodies such as NASA and private companies such as Mars One along with associates…

There's been an ongoing debate on the idea and topic about Pluto's classification as a planet. In 1930, Pluto was discovered 400 billion miles away from the sun by Clyde Tombaugh. "Clyde Tombaugh was an American astronomer who worked for the Lowell observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona" (Wikipedia). When Pluto was discovered it was classified as a planet, it became the 9th planet in the solar system. It wasn't much longer before its classification was in questioned, as a result people started saying…
