The greatest response to living on Mars I've heard is consider living on Everest. On Everest you also need to grow food indoors, you get less sun, radiation is higher due to elevation, it's frigidly cold, you need to make your own power, make your own water, etc. The only difference between living on Mars and living on Everest is that on Everest if you take off your helmet, you don't immediately die.

Yes. 250 miles an hour on mars is like a gentle breeze on earth. The dust is the real problem. Its ionized and is fine particulate. So it sticks to everything and absolutely ruins seals on airlocks. The apollo astronaughts ran into the same problem on the moon.

[@andymanaus1077]

This is one of the three things that the movie, The Martian, got horribly wrong. The other two were the makeshift patch in the habitat flapping about as if the air pressures inside and outside were equal (If it could have held up at all, it would have been tightly ballooned outwards due to the huge pressure differential) and growing food from gamma-irradiated meals (NASA gamma-irradiates all its astronauts' meals to preserve them, killing any vegetables and making them useless for germination). They were all things that could have easily been fixed by the writers and directors using a bit more thought and actually listening to their science advisors.

There's nothing egotistical about it. No one is saying that it has to be done *now* with our current level of technology. In fact, that's not at all what's being suggested. The research into terraforming isn't about impossible technology, either. The technology exists. The problem is scale, time and money. And while we can experiment with other worlds all we want, it's more dangerous to do so with our own while we're still here, with no exit strategy.

Although it would be better if we could manufacture such things on mars. Maybe it will require an initial base which could then be used for manufacturing larger boring machines. All of this is possible if only we could get the international community together and work on the project instead of fighting one another here on Earth.

Minor correction: Martian soil does support growing certain veggies, not outside ofcourse cause radiation, but one would be able to do so in greenhouses using martian soil. University Wageningen did quite some research on this and lunar soil as well. Google: food+ Mars+ Wageningen will get you to their research.

[@dxb8086]

No. Martian soil is very harmful for plants and people because it contains a lot of chlorine in molecules called perchlorates. These toxic molecules will need to be removed before using the soil to grow food crops. And thats what has been worked on, you mentioned it. Thoughty2 is still correct on that.

@@dxb8086 True. The perchlorate might be useful to create oxygen or rocket fuel, it it’s a showstopper for agriculture in the Martian topsoil.

Sending an a.i. to Mars to further explore the red planet maybe a smart idea. But then again if the a.i. finds Mars too hostile and disastrous place to dwell, the a.i. may eventually cry out "HELP."

I just feel like we did the damage to our planet, instead of trying to go off and do the same to another planet, we should do all that we can to help the one we are on and if we can't, then we should live with what we have done.

[@jasoncourson8112]

It's not so much about damaging or preserving our planet... For us to guarantee our survival as a species we must become a multi-planet species because if a gamma ray burst or an asteroid where to hit our planet we would be done.. becoming a type one species on the kardashev scale would mean that we could terraform another planet but it's not just about creating an atmosphere of Mars so much as making a magnetic shield like how our planet has to protect us from cosmic radiation

[@davidbeppler3032]

You can do both. You think the damage we did to Earth is what will kill us? Probably not. We are far more likely to all die from a solar flare, super volcano, or an asteroid. Not CO2 pollution. lmao

Terraforming Mars while having Earth sounds always like passing on a 1kg Steak while trying to grow a rice crispy tree in your kids' sandbox before you starve.

[@Hemmaroidrage]

Need a couple of corrections .... Martian dust storms top out at around 60mph....and with an air pressure of only 1% that of Earth, a 60mph martian wind might just rustle a dried leaf on the ground...maybe. If not for the dust that would get kicked up, a human on the surface wouldn't even notice the wind. The dust kicked up would most likely resemble a fog of talcum powder.

[@offtomars1]

It must be easier to terraform and populate earths deserts and cold regions than Mars. At least there is breathable air in those environments.

[@southcoastinventors6583]

The better near term option but ultimately we will do both out of boredom.

[@eabutler6861]

its so much easier to build cities in the desert, antarctica or under the sea, before we do it on mars...... hence we aint colonizing mars, unless they have some super rare mineral there

[@dramaqueenedits]

All this proves to me is that the earth was DESIGNED to sustain life. It’s not by accident

[@strandedinseattle9931]

A small oversight: Our best bet is for a subterranean settlement to avoid the surface storms/issues. You don't need terraforming, you just have to build well underground.

[@jebes909090]

Id like to add that, although the storms can reach 250 miles an hours, the thin atmosphere means that they have the force of a gentle.breeze on earth

[@allankolenovsky7028]

The primary reason for going to Mars is that it is a rich source of materials that can be mined without having to worry about pollution. By focusing mining operations on Mars, we can avoid polluting our own planet. The real question that needs to be asked is whether or not the cost of moving mining operations to Mars is offset by the savings incurred by not polluting our own planet.

I'm still sticking with colonizing titan because it has atmosphere 4 times thicker and 60% denser than earth. And has extra room for colonization because it not only has dunes where we can construct bases but also we can construct floating bases on its hydrocarbon lakes.

you forget that any atmosphere you make is going to just be stripped away unless we tackle the lack of magnetosphere first.

[@Crimea_River]

Even if you could build an atmosphere on Mars, you would still need a magnetosphere to protect the planet. Mars once had a thick atmosphere but that was stripped away by solar radiation. Whether artificially created or somehow restarting Mars' core, a magnetosphere is paramount to the success of terraforming Mars.

[@lessanderfer7195]

I have been reading Sci-Fi since I was able to read. I watched the first "Man walk on the Moon", and every one after, and too, when Sky Lab fell. I love to dream with the best of them. However, as much as discovering "strange new worlds" sounds like a great future for man and a greater future for all mankind, once we leave Earth, we are not going to be going back to planets. We will evolve to the challenges and differences of Space, and Planets will be more problematic than beneficial. We might seed Life on them, but we will not step foot on them.

We've already Terraformed Mars... that's why that atmosphere is so stripped! Prior to getting hit by a meteorite roughly 12,500 years ago, we already colonized Mars. We lost our history, and Mars Human, turned into Martians.

[@atomicbunny7722]

For the people saying the wind wouldn't be a problem Since the atmosphere on mars is so thin it would still be a problem because of the dust it will pick up and cover everything and even though wind wouldn't do much even at that speed as there is less air in the air but if we thickened the atmosphere it would be a problem as there is more air to push things.

[@tarikattarikat2613]

Thoughty, if you have in mind the very low atmospheric pressure, even the most severe winds will have zero impact on the equipment on Mars. Yes, the particles fly very fast, but there are just too few of them.
