This is what we need today, a new "we can do it" project, just like the moon landing was. The 1960s were a tumultuous time. Much like the current is. Many things divided the country, racial issues, the Vietnam war, a generation conflict like none before, but there was the space program that not only gave many people work. It gave people a purpose. They could rally behind a greater goal that everyone was part of. From the farmer in Kansas who could think that his crops were used to feed the astronauts and the miner who could see his ore being used to build those rockets to the welders that built the rockets and the accountant that managed the distribution of funds. Everyone was part of this, and everyone could, quite credibly, say "this ain't going nowhere without me!" We need something like this again. Something that's not only a huge leap ahead in technology, and let's be honest here, what NASA invented in the 60s drove the US economy until the 90s. And I'm not talking about things like propulsion or even computer science, I'm talking about process management, quality management and project management, things that were hardly considered "important" before that were basically invented during those days, at least their methodical use. At best they were "coincidentally" used before, only with the rigor of quality and process planning the moon shot required these now crucial and generally employed management techniques were elevated to an academic, systematic level. And we really, really need that again. Yes, the moon shot was incredibly expensive. And going to Mars will cost even more. But if our flight to Mars is only half as rewarding, in hard US-Dollars, actually, as the moon shot was, the US economy will take over the world in ways we can't even imagine yet. Someone said recently he wants to make America great again. Now, here's his chance.

Wouldn't the polar regions be better in terms of access to water and fewer temperature extremes? Perhaps if there's any magnetic field left protecting the surface, it would be strongest by the poles. Sun might not be strongest there but I would think solar panels in orbit could beam power to wherever you want to build a base. solar panels might be safer in orbit than on the surface and have access to constant sun.

Unless the idea is to build a solar thermal plant for power (And perhaps efficiency if a large enough scale is needed.) I figure it's safer to distribute the solar PV collectors over every installation on the outpost. That distributed and interconnected network is less vulnerable than just one central generating plant. There would also be less line loss if the settlement is spread out.

@willb52788 жыл бұрын
+Pablo Garcia Abia Tank it. It's not like their instantly lethal or anything. But more seriously, radiation is certainly an issue, but its not an unsolvable one. NASA has a 'maximum career-long dose' (set by some alphabet agency I believe, mostly based on keeping increased risk of cancer below acceptable levels) that their astronauts are allowed to absorb before they're barred from future flights for health reasons. So long as we can put enough shielding on the habitats, rovers and suits that their mission-long dose is lower than that maximum you have a workable mission. We might not be able to stop the most energetic cosmic rays, but if we can stop enough of the rest our bodies can deal with the bits of damage here and there that cosmic rays cause.
8 жыл бұрын
Thank you for taking your time answering my question. I'm pretty sure you know our atmosphere thickness, radiation-wise, is worth 1 meter of lead. You may adopt a compromise in the amount of shielding used in habitats and suits, but still the cancer rate for long term missions will be substantial. Not to mention planned life-term missions. Strong permanent magnets may help, just thinking aloud. Thank you again.

Nasa Should first send robots up there who will first build a whole city with 3D printers and collecting minerals and metals and useful stuff from the Mars soil and then when all is already built up only then transfer the first few humans to Mars... These few contains there will not be enough to support life in an emergency situation like fire or breathing air failure...or some small fast meteorites will smash the roofs or break the windows... it should all first build underground to be safe from meteorite impacts also... This small concept is really there to fail... Murphy´s law always hits the first time... Just my 2 cents... Regards, Stefan.

Very cool! How is NASA going to deal with the higher radiation levels coming from sun? There is hardly an atmosphere and it can affect the computer equipment and astronauts while there. I presume you'll want to use high efficiency solar panels (not what we use on our homes) as the need to have enough energy is more crucial there.
@willb52788 жыл бұрын
+Chris Sparks Best guess? The same way they deal with it on space probes (using radiation-resistant versions of computers and stuff) and shielding. They didn't show it in the vid but most Mars Base designs have the water stored or circulated through the walls because hydrogen atoms (the H2 part of H2O) are pretty good at making the radiation lose it's energy hitting them instead of the microelectronics in a computer or the molecular machinery inside our cells. _Put's on pedantic nerdcap_ Oh, also, there's not more radiation coming from the Sun in the space above Mars, there's actually less per unit area because it's farther away from the sun, but so little is blocked by the thin atmosphere and almost nonexistent magnetic field that the surface radiation level is higher than the surface level on Earth.
@mradaChris8 жыл бұрын
Yes I was specifically meaning the overall exposure to radiation is more than it would be on earth. Only issue with H2O being used would be the potential for freezing? I don't know what the average temperature of Mars is but I am sure that it will pose some tech challenges.

Chris Sparks Yeah but you need heating systems anyway to keep your astronauts alive, but yeah, there's a million little challenges with a project like this, that's why they hire engineers who are _really_ good at their job to design the gear. (And also why NASA ends up creating so many spin-offs)

@willb52788 жыл бұрын
+sluge1 That's what the life support systems are for, most of what they drink/breathe will be recycled, like on the ISS, but newer and better. No system is perfect though so they will need to replace losses eventually, depending on the duration of the mission, they could just bring extra in the logistics modules and head home when they run low, or they could use those ISRU sites. A lot of Mars' surface is covered in rust (Iron Oxide) and the thin atmosphere is CO2, both of those can be processed into oxygen if you have the right equipment and a power source. And ice or brine on the Martian surface (or just beneath it) can be melted and decontaminated into drinkable water. Hopefully that answered your question, that may not be the way NASA ends up doing it, but it's one way they've considered.
@raysills8 жыл бұрын
+sluge1 The Martian atmosphere is mostly carbon dioxide. With very simple 19th century technology, the CO2 , with the addition of hydrogen, can be chemically converted into methane (CH4) and O2. The oxygen can be used for breathing, and it can be combined with more hydrogen to make water (H2O). The methane, when burned with oxygen, can be used as a motor fuel and both can be compressed and liquified to be used as rocket fuel. It might mean having to bring along a quantity of hydrogen, but since hydrogen is the lightest weight element in the universe, the cost to bring it along would make it the least expensive cargo to bring. And, some areas of Mars have been shown to contain water (mostly as frost or ice) which can be melted for water or split into hydrogen and oxygen. Mars has some nice resources on site. Lots of possibilities!
