UFO's AND ALIENS: I think the government and NASA are keeping the truth about life outside our planet hidden from society. How can we be so arrogant and think that we here on earth are the only living beings in this gigantic universe with billions of stars galaxies, suns, solar systems and planets. Everyday there are sightings all over the world by citizens, commercial pilots, and military personnel. I think we have been visited and offered help to benefit mankind with technologies that can…

Recent revelations in the news over NASA finding “liquid” water on Mars has gotten many people excited about the possibility of sending humans to live on the planet, without much insight into the actual reasons why that idea is still not currently feasible. A planet must have much more than just water in order to be a habitable place, and these factors are often overlooked, in fact the same factors affecting the water supply on Mars are also the factors that factors behind the other reasons it…

You are an astronaut, and your crew leaves you on mars. Everyone thinks you died. I am reading The Martian by Andy Weir, and I am on page 251. This book is about a man named Mark Watney. Mark is left on mars under the impression that his demise happened. He finds safety in the Hab, but the food available will only last him about 300 sols (days on mars). Even if anyone on Earth knew he was alive, a rescue trip would take over 800 sols to get to mars. When reading, I recognized three merits:…

existence of potentially life supporting water that flows across the antient surface of Mars, even today! According to John Grunsfeld, the associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA, "the existence of liquid water, even if it is super salty briny water, gives the possibility that if there's life on Mars, that we have a way to describe how it might survive." Using images taken by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, NASA researchers confirmed that the water streaks found…

The future of space exploration starts today with the Space Launch System. Soon we will be able to go farther and faster than ever before to explore Mars and everything beyond. There are many difficult choices to be made before this is possible. We must choose a transportation method for the crew to travel these vast distances. SEP-Chem and the Hybrid Method are the two most promising methods. We must also be able to use Mars’s natural resources to our advantage and explore new ways of getting…

Are There Living Forms On Mars? Scientists ask themselves; are there any extraterrestrial life beyond Earth? Humans are interested in the extraterrestrial life because we might not be the only ones out here in the universe. Being able to contact with and learn from other forms of life would be amazing. The human civilization might be able to contain help from other extraterrestrial and learn their ways of life. If there are or aren't living forms out in the universe, it is up to us to find out.…

Colonizing Venus Instead of Mars Throughout the years, the space community has pushed the boundaries of what we, as humans, can and cannot do. With infinite possibilities within our continually expanding universe, it was only about time that space colonization would jump out of sci-fi novels and into our reality. As overpopulation and the increasing risk that a disaster, natural or man-made, may destroy the earth weighs heavy on the shoulder's of the human race, it is also time to take space…
