Timekeeping on Mars

Our move to Mars would certainly have a great effect on the population on both the planets Earth and Mars. The population of Earth would firstly be affected by those who go to colonize Mars and secondly by any other restrictions put upon them to ensure the survival of the Mars colony. The population of Mars would be affected by the initial colony arrival and affected more with the growth of the colony over time. As the colony on Mars goes on the population on Mars will likely rise and the exponential growth of Earth’s population will likely shrink. The Mars colony is planned to have some slightly different population growth strategies than others. To begin with, my colony will have little to no growth in the first five years of it’s time on Mars. This is to allow…

Researchers have been discovering new moons as well as making new technology, but the sense of adventure and inspiration we had then is gone (Kavanagh). Mars is not the only plans for the space program, but it is the closest step we can accomplish shortly (Chen). Sometimes we forget how much the technology has progressed since the last space race. They made it to the moon within a decade with the technology of that age, so there should be nothing stopping us from reaching the Red Planet within a…

advancements in technology in the past decade alone, it’s only natural that mankind would look to the final frontier once again. While considering the question of Mars colonization, we, as a society must consider cost factors of commuting and terraforming. The question of funding arises, exposing an even bigger dilemma of international cooperation. The factors bolstering humans to colonize are balanced by ethical and economic tethers that keep us here on Earth. Before we delve into the debate…

hygiene, isolation, and gravity are only a handful of what astronauts have to deal with on their missions through space and walking among other planets. While it is an exciting thought that humanity may be living on another planet, such as Mars, one day, it may not be as easy as society thinks when we finally make it there. An experiment was done by NASA to simulate what it would be like for a group of people to live on terrain similar to Mars (Cornet, 2015). “A major component of the…

In this class, Core 1, we have touched on many different subjects. First, we discussed about the origins of the universe in module number one. Afterwards, we touched upon the origins of life in module number two. Currently, we talked over the origins of societies and culture in module number three. Even though the three different modules all seem to be broad and different, I believe they have an important similarity, and that is classification. As humans, we have the tendency to classify…

other problems [3]. The departing journey is enough to make anyone go mad. Living in one room, barely being able to move, takes its toll. At least we don’t have to wear our suits yet. Once we get to Venus, living conditions will be even worse. Venus’s atmosphere has a pressure of about ninety times that of Earth and a surface temperature of around 470 C [4]. Even with the cooling apparatuses in our suits it’ll be sweltering. Another property of the air there is it’s 96.5% carbon dioxide [5].…

Imagine a time where humans could travel half of the speed of light. Humans could go to mars in under 10 minutes! This time is not that far away. With the new research of antimatter, scientists have found many impressive tasks we can accomplish. Even though there are many positive aspects of antimatter, many people are scared of it. This article will discuss why antimatter is a good thing and why we should be using it more. Many of people might not know what antimatter is. Antimatter is…

How satellites have been used to help society? A satellite is a space body which has been created by colliding of two or more space objects (for ex. meteorites). There are two types of satellites: natural satellites (like moon, an earth’s satellite) and man-made (artificial), satellites launched to the orbit by people. Natural satellites A natural satellite is space body that orbits another space body bigger than itself. Natural satellites are not man-made satellites. They come from space…

The two main types of lights are the sun and the moon, respectively designated as a greater and a lesser light. One reason the moon may be lesser is because its surface reflects the light of the sun rather than creating light within itself, like the sun. The notion of a greater light and a lesser light is similarly expressed in John 1. Jesus, as the son of God, is the ‘true’ - in meaning perfect and ideal - light. John is a witness to the light, not the light itself, suggesting his figure as a…

The Evolvable Mars Campaign Introduction There are two transportation methods of the approaches to the mars. The two methods are the SEP-Chem and the Hybrid method. In the SEP-Chem architecture, the system destination and the propellant return or the stages are pre-deployed proceedings to the troop leaving by the spacecraft of the cargo and it is a solar electric. While in the Hybrid approach, the systems of the destinations are also installed before the troop leave via the SEP, but the…
