RE: Can we make enough breathable air in our future MARS colony? - Colonization of MARS Series
oh, I was looking out for this: 3 Golden Nuggets a day - on Deflation. In this I study deflation which would relate to long-term planning in a new colony, however, Yuval Harari claims space travel would lead to a biological enhacement of our species which makes one think, although the possibility seems far far away, can we build our human bodies in such a manner that we do not need oxygen, but could use something else .. like 'Supercritical' CO2 which is mentioned in a study on alien life by space.com.
My main interest lies in how would we be able to reach one of these planets: 10 Exoplanets That Could Host Alien Life, if not by using every other planet on our way to them..
Ha! I like the way you think! Yes, if you read the list of future articles you will see I will get there :
You will enjoy the full series:
Can we make sufficient breathable air in our colony?
Can we find a source of water on Mars?
Can we feed the colony remotely?
Can we protect against radiation?
Can we survive the extreme martian cold?
Can we develop a transport system?
Can we survive micro gravity?
Can we get sufficient energy for the colony?
Can we survive the low atmospheric pressure on Mars?
Can we produce the fuel needed to get back to Earth?
Can our minds live under the constant stress and solitude?
Can we be self sufficient there and how long until then?
Can we thrive on Mars? Could we adapt?
Can we even think about terraforming?
Can we ever communicate in real time?Will there be a copy of the internet on Mars?
It's not exhaustive, just did my homework before.
It all started while waiting for Team Foundation to build my solution ( 35+ mins), but it soon took a life of its own as I need several continuous hours to write an article. I can also dream here :)
Ambitious list. Write a book and become the next Andy Weir :)
