we like so much Mars that we thought of sending people there. after the NASA announced that it has found liquid water on the red planet and that the movie The Martian has been released, the will and possibilities seem to have increased. 6y4hd
In Ask Me Anything session (Ask me anything, in free translation) from Reddit, scientists from NASA – Michael Meyer, Todd May and Brian Muirhead – clarified whether we really can send humans to mars and what are the limitations.
We have a better chance of surviving on Mars than on the Europa satellite 415li
Europe is one of four jupiter's moons and gained a lot of attention for having more water than Earth, according to the US space agency. But according to Michael Meyer, we are more likely to survive on Mars than on Europa, due to the severe radiation on the satellite. For him, the red planet is the only place in our solar system that can sustain human life.
But… We can't drink the water from the surface of Mars 5gz4
A discovery of liquid water on mars It was important. However, the fact that it is liquid does not mean that we can drink it. This is because almost all of the atmosphere of the planet is made up of CO2, chemical compound that we exhale and that causes low pressure. Pure water there cannot be stable. Furthermore, Mars has one-third the gravity of Earth, which means you would weigh a third of your current weight if you went there.
Can you go there anyway? 2vo56
Hollywood has already populated Mars in the movie “Total Recall” (1990) starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, already in real life, the technological challenges are huge. NASA knows how to send people into space and how to survive there, but it still needs to figure out how we can become. independent of the earth to survive many years.
The expectation is that humans can start going to the red planet in decade 2030. Today, they are working on solutions to send humans back from space with the Space Launch System and Orion Capsule, as well as long-term life systems on the International Space Station. It will also be necessary to work on a housing transport system and a lander. Much of this work will depend on robots.
Another problem we face is the lack of a magnetic field. Here on Earth, he is able to protect us of solar radiation. We wouldn't be so lucky there, unless we create magnetic fields, which is possible. The difficulty today is making it big enough.
So, if you had the opportunity to go to Mars, would you?
