[@jackgreenlee7223]

I can appreciate what your saying, but knowing the nature of people, Black Projects, and the Military Industrial Complex, they're already doing it, or working on it. What you see, come into the free market, is the result of that research. Take prosthetics for example, what we see advertised, from our medical facilities, this is the civilian version, of that research. I can only imagine, the application's the military, and their civilian contract partners, have devised, and are continuing to refine. And if they were to combine that technology, with even current robotics, the possibilities are, intriguing to say the least. I see a future, where loss of a limb, on the battlefield, is only a temporary set back, to a combat soldier, in the field. We're on the cusp now, of regrowing organs, how long before we're regrowing, or replacing limbs, with artificial, or lab grown ones. I mean, we're only seeing, what the civilian market has achieved. And with our nature, we're always prone to dabble, with things best left alone. Are we seeing glimpses of our future, on alien battlefields, with Halo, or Space Marine type combatants? Or could it even happens right here, on Earth? Our curiosity, always tends to get the best of us..!

The question is not whether we would be able to get people to go to Mars as colonists. The question is why would they go and what sort of people would they be? If history gives us anything to go by, colonists on Mars would consist of: 1. A few wealthy individuals who control almost everything in the colony 2. An overwhelming majority who have fled to Mars in an attempt to get a better lot in life than is available to them on earth. 3. A handful of the “dregs of society”. People who are sent to Mars because it’s better to send them to Mars than to support them here on earth. For example, Australia started as a prison colony. What the Mars colony turns into will be determined by how many of each group there are and how well the different groups can function together.

You've read too much sci-fi. The people going would not be poor and uneducated lmao are you drunk?

[@Andriastravels]

[@SpinoSam]

I reckon the number of wealthy people that go will be... very low. Mars isn't like any normal place on Earth, it's a barren wasteland. An empty slate to build something new. Most of the people that go will be number 2 and number 3. People who want a chance to start over and do something meaningful, and people who want to get away from Earth.

[@PaulADAigle]

All of this has been talked about before, many times. The plan should be done in multiple steps: 1. Send good AI bots to Mars. a. Set up a base for human living by 3D printing from the local dirt into a large hard shell, and then inflate a well-protected room inside of it. The local dirt material would help protect the occupants from radiation and weather in addition to the protection from the inflatable itself. b. Include an AI base for data and communications, while having AI bots searching the area for underground lava tubes and such. Perfect future habitation locations, as well as mapping. c. Start AI building the base with ample supplies like food, oxygen, fuel, etc. This would require additional buildings of course. 2. Send people to colonize. They would need to expect the colonization to be permanent. They would also determine what is missing from the plans and request shipments for additional materials. 3. Set up future components like Mars orbiting satellites (better communications), better transport ships with artificial gravity (preferably something that doesn't need to land like the ISS with landing pods-small ships attached), and orbiting tanker structures for easier fueling.

[@tedchew1246]

Regarding AI, bear in mind that computer hardware we send into space is not cutting edge. It's decades old processors that have to be hardened to withstand the harsh radiation environment. It is impressive what has been accomplished despite this, such as flying an autonomous helicopter drone on Mars. But my point is that AI of the type that is flourishing here on Earth may be a long time coming on Mars.

[@petertuckergoettler5720]

For rehabing from the gravity, we should really construct ships that have a rotating ring segment on it for earth mars transit. When traveling to mars, evey day you decrease the RPM to get people ready for mars gravity. When coming back from mars you would slowly increase the RPM of the ring segment a little bit more every day until they have adapted to earth gravity before arrival

AI will need to get more sophisticated but AI does not have consiousness. They are autonomous within a narrow set of parameters based only on vast quantities of input data. One place where AI would be critical is in diagnosis and probably surgery on site. As for the trauma of changing gravity, the effect is going from low to high, not high to low. In my hard sci-fi novels, the solution are 'resistance suits' made up of soft robotic muscles which counter our own. The idea is to provide resistance for most of our movements like having a constant workout. Set the suits for Earth's 1g. In space, much more needs to be done to use centrifugal gravity rather than exposing people to a year or more of microgravity.

[@honkhonk8009]

I dont think it would be that much of an issue during transit though, since if humans ever do actually go to mars, it would be through stuff like Nuclear Thermal Rockets. Rockets that would be acccelerating/decelerating constantly to the point artificial gravity prolly wouldnt even be necessary honestly. I think were set to go to mars in 2035 lowkey. Almost entirely cus i feel like we might get to the point where AI would have as reliable of a context to work with, as a video game NPC would.

Hardly anybody talks about basing all AI on Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics. He foresaw the threat of renegade robotics more than half a century ago, and planned these laws as a safety feature. All computers to my knowledge have a PROM, of Programmable Read-Only Memory; once set, the programming cannot be changed. Laws could be passed requiring the Three Laws to be programmed into the PROM. Every hardware unit could be marked certified to have the Three Laws; any lacking this certification would be treated like unregistered firearms. (A possible downside to all this is that comparing every command a robot receives against the Three Laws template could slow down processing time; it would be like running every civil law or regulation no matter how trivial through the U.S. Supreme Court to see if it's Constitutional. There would have to be ways to streamline that procedure without compromising it.)

it would be interesting if Mars is hard focus on for heavy mining with no one actually living on mars anymore. Instead workers, researchers, etc, live on stations in orbit around Mars, close enough so the lag time for remote control is insignificant allowing for mining operations to be monitored. If need be, people can land on the surface to perform various maintenance like a diving would perform maintenance under the sea. I imagine these jobs would only be undertaking for periods at a time or only for so long like Hyperbaric Welders. Perhaps a solution for creating artificial gravity on a space station will be found.

The Make-Break Point is 1) self-sufficiency then 2) economic exchange. There will certainly be something valuable u there that is less available here. It could be minerals or wven if they planted non-GMO crops on Mars. And also access to ample minimg of asteroids -- whichay turn put to become the real economic game changer and prosperity.

Of course all of this is assuming nasa won't fold under safety concerns and require a gravity ring for trips

"Eath"? I'm betting that's a typo. 0:35

AI is neither good nor bad. It really depends what information you feed it. If you feed it good information it will be good. If you feed it bad information it will be bad.

Maybe the martian clothing can just be made a hell of a lot heavier, from material they can grow or make with renewables.

A long term goal would also have to be setting up a spinning habitat on Mars where the inhabitants would spend most of their time in full Earth-g or as close as you could make it before they started throwing up. The only time they would spend in Mars-g would be in the rare times they actually needed to step outside.

Landing on Mars possible arround 2050!😊

Anything to do with spacefaring in general will be the driving mechanism the economy of Mars. Once the proper infrastructure is established it will much cheaper to build from scratch and launch spacecraft from Mars. Mars would be able to easily monopolized this industry away from Earth.

Great video - keep it up! Concise and to the point! A+++

The only way we will colonise space effectively is through rotating space stations that create 1G artificially through rotation.

After a 10 hour flight I had an ephifany. No one will ever get to Mars. I was almost going crazy after a 10 hour flight, and this is an airplane, with gravity, bathrooms and the ability to walk around. Imagine a crew that will be forced to stay just about the same positions, sleep deprived because is difficult to sleep in space, peeing and pooping in space for nine months! It is impossible.

Lets get the trains to work first. HS2 just one example.

[@techpappee]

You would think there will be artificial gravity in the mars base so 1g on mars except when outside the base. Not quite like you're describing. There's also working ideas on how to implement gravity during the trip. We are at least a decade away from Mars. The Moon base will come first, our test base. Btw the Moon has less gravity than Mars 😊

[@RosscoAW]

How the fuckadoodle-doo are you going to "artificial gravity" in a subterranean Martian complex? You gonna build the entire structure as a massive ring on floating, rotating foundations beneath meters of Martian soil? lmao wot

[@christianalmon4117]

*rightfully pissed off natives* lol i mean thats not wrong obviously, and the way its said so casually is just funny to me
