“ Mars is there, waiting to be reached.” - Buzz Aldrin. Buzz Aldrin, born with the name Edwin Eugene Aldrin Jr., was a former astronaut, engineer, and command pilot in the Air force. He was also one of the two first humans to reach the Moon. Right now mankind is so close to exploring Mars because it is so similar to Earth. This planet is habitable because of the water, temperature, and amount of sunlight. Also, Mars is a great place to explore because when we explore Mars it is possible to find out if, what happened to Mars, will happen to Earth. Furthermore, this exploration would drive economic and technology change in the United States.
To begin, Mars may look like a bone dry planet, but compared to other planets, moons, or asteroids the
The word race is defined at its core as a competition between runners, horses, vehicles, boats, etc. to see which is the fastest in covering a set course. Well, interestingly enough, a race of a different kind occurred between two countries from the years 1957 to 1969. The competition was unclear, and the opponents were on two entirely different continents, not something as simplistic as two horses. The United States and the United Soviet States of Russia both set out as arch rivals in the “Space Race,” a quest for dominance beyond the known Planet Earth. Ironically enough, just as communism was spreading to all parts of the world, the United States always sought to squash this form of government, despite somewhat dire consequences. Now, with
Knowing the impermanence of the Earth, do humans have a moral obligation to find and
Why We Should go to Mars “It was obvious to me that we could never colonize Mars without reusability, any more than America would have been colonized if they had to burn the ships after every trip,”(Dave, 2017). This is what Elon Musk said in an interview in Fortune Magazine on December 9th 2013. The fourth planet in our solar system, Mars, is the closest “Earth-like” planet, Which is why SpaceX, NASA, and many other organizations are trying to make a human trip to Mars possible, as well as learning many things about Mars and Earth at the same time. Mars has a lot of potential to be a habitable planet to continue the human race.
The best argument for exploring and colonizing on Mars can be summed up in one colloquial phrase, “don’t put all of your eggs into one basket.” To elaborate, all of humanity is on Earth. Earth is enormous, but it is still just one place. A medium-sized earthquake in Japan was enough to cause millions of dollars in damage and end thousands of lives. And when Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, the ash clouds blocking out the sun all around the entire planet for weeks.
Humans have been fascinated with the night sky for thousands of years, and not surprisingly, this fascination has grown into contemplation for the existence of life elsewhere in our universe. In our solar system there has been no other planet more fascinating to us than our closest neighbor, Mars. This fascination is reasonable, because Mars seems to be one of the very few places in our solar system that holds the capabilities to support current or ancient life forms. With the launch of The National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s [NASA] Mars Rovers Spirit and Opportunity on July 7, 2003 mankind had taken a major step forward for the exploration of the surface of Mars. Not only have the two rovers greatly surpassed their 90-day missions by a significant margin, with Spirit lasting 2695, and Opportunity still going strong at 3741 days, but they have also made some significant discoveries along the way. Following in the footsteps of these rovers, NASA has also recently accomplished another step forward for new discoveries on the Martian landscape with the Curiosity mobile science laboratory. This new rover made its debut on Mars on August 6, 2012, and since it’s landing it has made multiple groundbreaking discoveries in only a year and a half’s time. This paper is going to illustrate the most important discoveries of all the Mars rovers, what these discoveries mean for the Martian planet, and what these discoveries mean for mankind.

Who knows what kind of opportunities can come from Mars? We can use the many resources that have already been found on this planet, it could help us in many ways beyond space exploration, and it could even be a new place for us to live. That’s why I believe that the government should fund space exploration to Mars.
“I think humans will reach Mars, and I would like to see it happen in my lifetime” was said by Buzz Aldrin, a NASA astronaut. The former American aeronaut from Montclair, New Jersey believes that since Mars does exist, it is waiting to be reached by humans. When this would happen, he says that the human race would “evolve into a two-planet species.” Present day Mars has a lot of canyons, mountains and volcanoes. Even though the surface is Mars is very old, scientists learned about different younger rift valleys, plains, hills and ridges. According to recent reports, there were lakes and rivers, along with an ocean billions of years ago. The low temperatures on the planet cause there to be polar ice caps and frozen water present. Scientists continue to notice several discoveries on the planet that lead them to think there was once life on the planet. Different clues have scientists wanting to find out about even more. Many scientists in the past few centuries have been curious if life on Mars is possible or if it has ever been before.
Colonizing Mars, it seems like a distant achievement. Some say impossible, some say it will happen soon. Since Elon Musk has entered this field of exploration colonization of Mars has seemed even more plausible. Still, problems have surfaced to make this much more difficult than it has to be. This makes some believe this to be impossible or unlikely for the time. Despite what side you are on we can both agree that we want to advance in space exploration.
Earth has become quite a sick planet and soon will not be able to support us. Earth is turning into chaos and it’s making people want to leave. The Earth is becoming dangerously warm resulting in changing climates, rising sea levels and it puts wildlife at risk. We have been going crazy with the natural resources to the point where their becoming dangerously low and lacking. The Earth is very over populated, we have went extremely over the maximum capacity level and the Earth cannot support all of us. There are also good reasons people want to leave to Mars. People want a more ecofriendly life where there’s no pollution and you can have a fresh start on a healthier life. There’s land on Mars, land we need to fix this overpopulation issue. Moving to Mars means letting Earth recover so maybe we could move back after hundreds of years to a healthy Earth. There are many benefits to moving to Mars and here’s my expert plan to achieve it.

Methods This project was a gap analysis performed through an evaluation of current case management
Space Exploration has waisted billions of dollars on just failed attempts to go to space. This is foolish, when we have so many problems in the world to solve. World problems range from poverty and starving people to natural disaster damage. Every problem requires a surplus of money. This means we can’t spare any to unnecessary causes such as space exploration.
Jake Reed Erika Harnett ESS 102 13 November 2015 Mars! It was cold. There were raging winds and subzero temperatures, the result of a pitifully underdeveloped Martian atmosphere. Cutting gusts and the anoxic air made the surface impossible to survive in unassisted.
Exploring into the vast lands of the universe used to be something people would put into movies and books- it was science fiction. Now with the developments in science and technology we have seen around the world, space exploration has become a reality. We have put a man on the moon, created an International Space Station for astronauts to live, and discovered other planets and galaxies millions of lightyears away. These are monumental achievements for the human race and I believe that there are a significant amount of benefits that we can gain from further space exploration. However, I also believe that there are many cons associated with space exploration.
“We choose to go the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because the goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win” Quoted by former president John F. Kennedy. Exploration of space is a huge necessity to our very well being and the funds are very well needed to keep explorations alive. Exploration of space helps us keep track of atmospheric conditions that can potentially bear a threat to human society, it gives us a healthier perceptive of the planet and how humans are effecting it through the scenes of different planets. furthermore
Should humans colonize Mars? While many people focus on making the possibility of interplanetary colonization a physical reality, some question whether we should actually do so. These people raise ethical, moral, religious, and economic issues with colonization. So the question remains, can we justify any colonization of Mars, or are we overstepping our society’s boundaries? I have always had a fascination with space and NASA.
