President Obama has a goal In 2030 to have humans on Mars. He mentions that NASA as well as other private companies will have to collaborate to get the job done. He previously mentioned in 2010 that he wanted to send astronauts to orbit Mars and return to earth safely. He said that the ultimate goal is not only to have them land there but also stay there for on extended amount of time. Not only that but in 40-100 years Obama, and SpaceX chief executive Elon Musk have created a plan to send 1 million people to colonize the planet.
In my opinion I think its cool that soon humans may be able to colonize another planet. But really living on mars can be such a depressing environment. No colors,plants,wildlife,oceans just red dust.It seems like such a boring and depressing place to live.

I agree with the idea of sending someone to Mars. I mean, if something were to happen, don't you think we would need a plan B?
ReplyDeleteI think that this is important but as of now, it just isnt practical. Fix life here first.

I never would have thought this would even be possible so I hope it happens.

ReplyDeleteIt DOES seem pretty boring. I think at the moment they should be taking further actions on preserving this planet and not trying to go to a different one, because this one is about to be gone. Nice idea though.

ReplyDeleteIn my opinion it's a crazy idea I mean do we really need to be on mars? But it does sound cool though!
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that Obama has these plans for the future. It does seem like a crazy idea humans being on Mars. However, I think we really need to think about some of the negative outcomes. Like, we don't want to pollute that environment. Personally, this idea is crazy and i don't exactly support it. Here on Earth, we are already going through problems of polluting. Part of me thinks we really shouldn't just arrive there and just take over that planet. I mean we should at least worry about all of our problems and solving most of them before having problems on two planets. Obviously Mars is nothing like Earth, but I don't think we should colonize on it. Sure we can definitely explore and take samples, but i don't think we should just take over and make it our planet.
ReplyDeletei think that humans should be on mars for sure! this might change the world of science forever!
ReplyDeleteThe idea of living on mars is a little scary to me. It would be a huge milestone though. I hope whoever comes into office next doesn't undo everything that Obama did.
