Colonizing Mars It takes nine months to get to the red planet. Nine long months in a spaceship without much food, oxygen, water, little living space, and only other people to keep you company. Colonization of Mars is not okay because the planet is deadly, the trip is long, and the atmosphere is frigid. Mars is very deadly, unlike Earth. On Mars, humans are exposed to radiation. On Earth, however, humans are protected by a magnetic field. The effects of exposure are severe memory loss, brain damage, and cancer. That would be terrible for scientists, because when they have to go exploring for samples scientists would have to be very cautious. Although the gravity on Mars allows humans to jump higher and run faster, scientists have observed what happens to humans in low-gravity environments, including weakened immune systems, extreme fatigue, and muscle and bone loss. In addition, the dust storms. For instance, if a colonist was out collecting samples when suddenly a dust storm blows by, and carries the colonist away, or the tools.The colonists team would wonder where he/she is, and all of the tools for samples and research would be gone. Mars is a very deadly planet. Sure, once people get to Mars it is hopefully good times from there, but the trip to …show more content…
In the summer it only gets to a balmy 70 degrees Fahrenheit. But most of the time, Mars is deathly cold, with a temperature of -81 degrees! Colonists would need a special spacesuit to keep them warm, and special houses to keep them from freezing at night. The dust storms on Mars kick up lots of thin, sticky, dust that could block out the sun for days. That would be very problematic if colonists used solar panels to power their colony. In the winter, Mars can get to -195 degrees Fahrenheit near the poles. Mars is composed of: Carbon Dioxide, 95.32%, Nitrogen, 2.7%, Argon, 1.6%, Oxygen 0.13%, and Carbon Monoxide, 0.08%. The weather on Mars is highly
No matter how hard the government tried to put an end to the concerns that were rising about Rocky Flats, the Arvada community exposed the governments lies about how there was “no critical danger.” People such as Dr. Edward Martell and Dr. Carl Jonson put out the truth about Rocky Flats and the lethal radiation levels that people in the Arvada community have been exposed to. Soon after, thousands of protestors were ready to fight against the government and its secrets. Iversen also took action against the government by writing this story on Rocky Flats. She became a voice for the people who put their life on the line while working at Rocky Flats.
It has warm average temperatures and large amounts of precipitation. In the winter the average temperature is 51 degrees Fahrenheit the average daily minimum temperature is 40
In life some feel the need to prove something to others. That they are better, stronger, or even more intelligent. Whatever the case may be people will go through extreme measures to prove themselves. But who do we really need to prove anything to? Is it our parents?
Decisions made in the 1850s ultimately decided the United States fate. From the election of 1856 to the Dred Scott case, the nation would become divided into two. The South was pro-slavery and supported the idea of slavery expanded into western territories, while the North opposed of the idea and was mainly against expanding slavery. Until the 1850s the nation barely balanced the slavery issue.
Chris McCandless was in his early 20’s, he was the kind of that guy that wanted to learn and experience life without all of the material things. He wanted to be independent from his parents and friends so Chris did something that would be insane for most of us humans but to him, it wasn’t. He went into the wild of Alaska for months, in fact, McCandless even thought he could make it out alive at the end of his journey. As a matter of fact, he was known as being a risk taker and enjoyed being out and about in the nature side of the world. Many would believe that Chris McCandless went into the wild to purposely kill himself; however, I myself believe that McCandless did not do it purposely.
Odyssey Argumentative Essay The Odyssey is an epic by Homer. It is a story about Odysseus journey back to Ithaca after the Trojan War. All the Greek heroes had returned home after the Trojan War except for Odysseus who was an important hero in Ithaca. Odysseus was absent in his son’s life and Telemachus decided that, it was time to find his father and bring him back home to his wife Penelope.
Imagine what you could do with $23 billion dollars, such as improving education, healthcare, and more. Our government chose to put this money towards the Space Race. The Space Race began after the nuclear arms race between the US and Russia. Part of the reason for America’s desire to make space advancements is due to it’s immature competitiveness against other countries, which is costing billions. The money spent on the space race was not a legitimate use of government funds because the money could have gone to more relevant causes, it is extremely dangerous, and exploration beyond earth is unnecessary until we can first solve problems on earth.
Astronauts who stay in space for about 2 or more weeks will experience swelling in the face, eyes and head, and may also develope cataracts. Those who would spend 6-8 months traveling to Mars would endure the worst of these symptoms. It also doesn’t help that the gravity on Mars is ⅓ that of Earth’s. The gravity on Venus is 9/10th that of Earth’s. This makes for a much more comfortable and livable environment.
Do you think aliens are real? Yes, many people think they are just some made up theory, but In think they are wrong. I think aliens are real and lots of other people agree and they have proof by taking pictures and videos. Also the army found proof and kept it hidden from the world.
Changes to Earth sets out multiple negative effects towards all species that inhabit the Earth. First, these alterations causes human feelings to shift such as relationships. Next, these effects on humans can
WEST VIRGINIA — Near the entrance of Logan Middle School is a statue called “The Doughboy” — a World War I soldier carrying a firearm in one hand, and in the other a grenade. The bronze figure is indicative of West Virginia’s gun culture. As is the state flag — which features two firearms — and West Virginia University’s mascot, the musket-toting Mountaineer.
The invasion of Mars by Earthlings in “The Martian Chronicles” by Ray Bradbury causes both Martians and Earthlings to suffer from several different consequences. There are many instances in “The Martian Chronicles” where these consequences are shown indirectly. Some fatal consequences formed by the invasion of Mars include innocent deaths, the spread of insanity, sorrow, loneliness, confusion, chaos, and the growth of an unwanted second Earth on Mars. Overall, since the 1st expedition of Earthlings traveling to Mars, things have digressed.
The change can also be negative because with humans gone everything that has happened the last millions of years is gone
Space exploration has long been a debated topic. From the days where there was controversy between whether the universe revolved around the Earth, because god made humans special, to whether Copernicus’s idea that the Earth and the other planets of the solar system revolve around the sun was true. Then there was the space race where there was a dilemma based on what was ethical to be produced and sent to space (such as weaponry during the cold war). The more contemporary problem involves the exploration of space and the danger that space debris poses. We must accept however that space is our back-up plan if we were to exploit the Earth to such an extent that we could no longer survive here.
There is no doubt that reaching to Mars will facilitate several changes in the current human society. Going to the Red planet has been a huge dream of humanity for several decades.
