COLONIZING MARS

It might take going to another planet for different nations to finally, once and for all, learn how to get along with each other. What will we eat on Mars? We can't live off of a diet of potatoes alone. There are huge problems to solve, but recent technologies like 3D printing might help things move a lot faster, and be a lot less dangerous. Leland is a featured big thinker on season 2 of Mars on the National Geographic Channel. You can find out more information about the show here: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/tv/mars/ Read more at BigThink.com: https://bigthink.com/technology-innovation/what-humanity-will-gain-by-going-to-mars Follow Big Think here: YouTube: http://goo.gl/CPTsV5 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BigThinkdotcom Twitter: https://twitter.com/bigthink So, for humans to live on Mars and not just make a lot of potatoes and live off the potatoes for a while it's just the habitat, the systems itself for a robust life support system that's going to keep you alive for this long period of time. I mean we go to the space station that's been up there since 2000 and its been working, but we have a day and a half trip to get something to the space station if something fails and we need a spare part. Mars is going to take six to eight months to get something there. So trying to build systems that are super redundant but also have ways to fix things like with 3-D printing. I mean that's another thing that we have on the space station but we haven't had to utilize it for making things that are critical that are in situ [ph] right there. And so I think that is one of the things a habitat that's bullet proof. The food aspects, you know, eating food that not only tastes good but it also has a nutritional value that you're going to get all the nutrients that you need to function and liver for this extended period of time. The Martian environment is very harsh with the thin atmosphere, 3/8ths G, solar radiation, all these things, building suits that can handle that when you're doing these excursions and going out and cleaning the solar panels and doing these things having robust systems that will keep you alive. And then just water and food. I think I heard it's going to take 24,000 pounds of food for I think a colony of four or five to live up there so do you pre-position? Do you fly those and pre-position that there and hope that a dust storm or something doesn't wipe it out and know that it's still there? And then a shelf life of five years, whereas the shelf life for the food on the space station is 18 months, so a five year shelf life and every time an item of food sits there for another month, another month, another month it loses nutritional value, it loses flavor, it loses texture. So making sure that we have something that people are going to want to eat and will eat to stay healthy in this environment.

What The Science Script: One of the most ambitious plan for humanity is to leave our planet And find a new one to call home and one big step towards this big dream is colonization of Mars Right from NASA space X and many other agencies, are trying hard to find a way to make this possible The atmosphere of Mars is mostly carbon dioxide The surface of the planet is too cold to sustain human life And the planets gravity is mere 38% of earth gravity The atmosphere on the Mars is just one percent of earth’s atmosphere at the sea level The first problem of the entire voyage Landing on Mars Travelling to Mars is just the first step of the journey It will take 260 days to reach Mars Once we get there the major challenge will be landing on the planet’s surface Back in 2007 scientist considered four possible solutions to this problem Legged landing system based of lunar Lander Sky crane landing system Airbag landing system And Touchdown sensing 10 years later scientist have even more ideas on how to land manned mission on Mars But still scientist are not 100% sure about the best one to go with Next challenge will be designing habitat Since humans can't survive on Mars without proper habitat So designing them with available resources on Mars will be of a great challenge The habitat design should be self-sustaining And capable of supporting life for extended period of time without support from earth Even if we could achieve all of the stated parameters You would have to spend rest of your life in a closed dome The next challenge will be growth Keeping food and medicine supplies stocked on Mars is the best way to make habitat self-sustaining But with thin atmosphere and reduced sunlight it would be difficult to get anything to grow One possible solution can be artificial leaves Artificial leaves are designed to work in harsh conditions These leaves are made up of silicone rubber and can take little bit of sunlight and turn into enough power to fuel necessary chemical reactions to make medicines and other compounds Tera forming The first few trips to Mars will only include the essentials One of NASA’s first goal is to learn how to survive on Mars Without more research on the planet, NASA can't say about the dangers that could threaten human life After the first base is established NASA can have better understanding about what needs to be done to establish humanity on Mars Like detoxification of Martian soil Creation of greenhouses to grow plants Using water from Mar’s ice-capped poles etc. Scientist and enthusiast have speculated on everything from Nuking the planet into habitability To create a magnetic field around the planet To encourage it to grow its own atmosphere So that humanity can finally find its new home.

FormForge|Austin Industries|WPM of Austin, Texas, is the third-place winner of Phase 3: Level 2 of NASA’s 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge. This phase of the competition has five sub-levels. For this level of the competition teams had to additively construct a foundation slab without human intervention. The slabs were evaluated and scored based on multiple criteria, including strength, durability and material composition. To test their strength, a standard Olympic shot put was dropped on each slab three times to simulate a meteor strike. For durability, each slab was subjected to freeze/thaw tests, enduring temperature extremes such as those it would face on the Moon or Mars. The teams earned prize money based on scores assigned by a panel of subject matter experts from NASA, academia and industry. NASA’s 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge aims to further the progression of sustainable shelters that will someday occupy the Moon, Mars or beyond by pushing citizen inventors to develop new technologies capable of additively manufacturing a habitat using indigenous resources with, or without, recyclable materials. The 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge is managed through a partnership with NASA’s Centennial Challenges Program and Bradley University. Bradley has partnered with sponsors Caterpillar, Bechtel and Brick & Mortar Ventures to administer the competition. NASA’s Centennial Challenges program is part of the agency’s Space Technology Mission Directorate, and is managed at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.

Physicist Michio Kaku discusses the main difficulties humans face in colonizing Mars and how to overcome them. Read more at BigThink.com: https://bigthink.com/videos/michio-kaku-living-on-mars-a-4-step-guide-for-humans Follow Big Think here: YouTube: http://goo.gl/CPTsV5 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BigThinkdotcom Twitter: https://twitter.com/bigthink Well, the question is, if we’re entering a new “golden age” of space exploration what is the main bottleneck that we face? The main bottleneck has to do with life support and the human. See, we’ve already sent robots to Mars. We’ve already sent objects the size of a bus to the planet Mars, but now we’re talking about humans, which require a whole support network, and so we have to realize that things that we don’t even consider at all with the robots become central and a bottleneck for humans. Humans will have to live in an environment where there’s radiation; where there’s loneliness; where the journey can take two years; where temperatures are below freezing; where the atmospheric pressure is only one percent the atmospheric pressure on the planet Earth, and eventually we want to create a base there. We’re not going to go there just to plant the flag and come back and crow about it, no! We want a self-sustaining planet, a base on Mars that can support people. This means it has to be done in several steps. The first step would be to create a base on Mars with power. Solar power could provide the energy, and lava tubes, underground lava tubes might be able to provide caves by which astronauts could live and create the first outposts underground. That’s the way it was done in the movie 2001 [A Space Odyssey]. The moon base on the moon in that movie was underground, providing a natural barrier to radiation. And then once you have the base set up you have to begin the process of creating a self-sustaining agriculture there. I mean what are you going to eat on Mars? You can’t order a hamburger, because everything has to be shipped from the planet Earth. You want to create an agriculture and this means genetic engineering. This means creating genetically-modified algae and plants that can consume the rich carbon dioxide atmosphere, live in a very cold environment, and thrive. We’re going to have to genetically modify our plants so that we can create an agriculture so that it is self-sustaining on Mars. Then we have to create mining operations. We have to mine the ice. Ice can provide oxygen for breathing, water for drinking, and hydrogen for rocket fuel. And so we have to begin a mining operation so that we have the materials to build cities, materials to build bases, oxygen to breathe, water to drink, and hydrogen for rocket fuel. Then the last step in the process—and this will take maybe another hundred years—is to send satellites orbiting around Mars to begin the process of melting the polar ice caps. This is called space solar power. We have the blueprints already; the problem is cost. But the costs are dropping for sending payloads into outer space—dramatically—and so people are once again dusting off these old plans to create satellites around Mars that can beam energy and begin the process of melting the ice caps. Now, once you raise the temperature of Mars by about six degrees, once the temperature of Mars rises six degrees it becomes autocatalytic, it takes off, it becomes self-feeding, because the more heat you have on Mars the more carbon dioxide you loft into the atmosphere, which creates more greenhouse effect, which allows you to melt even more ice to raise the temperature even more, so you have a positive feedback loop. The question is: can we reach six degrees? That’s the key point. If we can raise the surface temperature of Mars by six degrees we can create this artificial spiral by which it feeds on itself and we can begin the process of terraforming Mars. And so remember: robots don’t need terraforming, humans do. And so to make Mars suitable for humans that’s going to be the big problem.

In this Episode of the Case for Mars, we discuss SpaceX's proposed timeline to send humans to Mars. We look back at the Red Dragon idea, the Interplanetary Transport System, and the newest BFR design. We uncover what they need to do in the next four years to accomplish their goals, and some notable people that think they won't be able to make it to Mars. Here at Martian Wolf, we aim to learn about different technologies that enable us to make incredible scientific discoveries about space exploration! Thanks for watching!

There have been wonderful things that he’s been talking about colonizing Mars, obviously putting a Tesla in space, which is playing David Bowie, which I love. He’s a really wonderful person and an inspiration to a lot of us. And one of the misconceptions that a lot of people have is that federal space programs like NASA and commercial space programs like SpaceX run by Elon Musk are in some type of a competition. I am a fan of all things space and one of the things that has been so fun for me in the last few years is the collaboration between those two different realms of space travel. For example, NASA routinely buys SpaceX rockets to put our payloads and our satellites up into space. And that means that as a NASA scientist I’ve gotten to go to several launches and landings of these Falcon rockets. And that’s amazing. It used to be that you would go to a launch and a big rocket would go off and everybody would cheer and then you would get in your cars and you’d drive home and it was all done, the amazing thing now is seven minutes later everybody just walks to the other side of the building and watches the first stage of that rocket land. And that is something that is mind blowing. Your eyes basically it does not compute you cannot believe what you are seeing because this giant thing comes down from space faster than you can imagine. And this is something that’s a several story high building it’s a big thing it comes careening down and just before it gets to the ground it stops, settles down and then gently lands. And one of the things that I love is that you don’t even hear the sonic boom until after you see it land. You watch this thing come careening down then stop, land gently and then you hear boom, boom because it broke the speed of sound coming in. And that is something that I am just really amazed I lived to be able to see. I love SpaceX and I love NASA’s collaboration. I think what a lot of people don’t realize is that NASA is one of SpaceX’s major customers. We actually buy the rockets and we’d even paid for some of the development of the rockets as well. So it was never a question of one or the other, it was the idea is that we’re collaborating the more companies going into space, hey the better for us the lower the cost of the rockets and the more efficient an industry we have and hopefully the more people that think space travel and space exploration are good things. Then there are the questions about whether Elon is going to build a giant rocket that can take hundreds of people to Mars, and this is something that as a scientist I am naturally skeptical person that’s how I was trained, right now what I see is a really cool idea it reminds me a lot of my favorite science fiction stories, but it’s basically just that, an idea. I think there’s a long way to go before we actually see any significant colonization, any significant number of people going to Mars. First we need to get one single person to Mars or a small team of people. And that is something that has proven very, very difficult. It’s not so much a question that we can’t build rockets to take us there because even today we have rockets that might have the capability of doing that, the problem is how you would keep a crew of people alive for the journey to Mars and then also alive on the surface and get them back. That would be very expensive and because the astronauts would not be protected from the radiation of space right now we really don’t know how to keep them alive. It’s not impossible, there’s a lot of work that can be done, but when I see people thinking that SpaceX is almost ready to send people to Mars that’s where I have a bit of a wait and see attitude. I would love to see people on Mars. I would love to see SpaceX take people to Mars. I think the Tesla up there heading out toward the asteroid belt is so cool. But, there’s a long way to go and it’s not easy. I think we’re not going to get there from a single company or a single nation. I think that for something as large as a mission to Mars we need to collaborate on a global scale, work with the Europeans, work with other emerging space markets, maybe work with several different companies not just one. It’s not a single entity, it’s a planet going out and exploring something as big as colonizing Mars. I mean it’s an amazing civilization scale activity. I am somewhat skeptical that in my lifetime I will see people walking on Mars. I hope we do. I’m not holding my breath.

Humans will have to breath, drink and eat while living on the Moon. They will need energy to perform tasks using their robotic companions and materials to build structures. For a sustainable approach to space exploration these resources cannot be carried from Earth but have to be found on the Moon itself. Angel Abbud Madrid is the Director of the Center for Space Resources at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM), where he leads a multidisciplinary research programme on the human and robotic exploration of space and the utilisation of its resources. He is also the Director of the CSM Space Resources Program, the first academic programme in the world focused on educating scientists, engineers, economists, entrepreneurs and policymakers in the developing field of space resources.  Space Bites hosts the best talks on space exploration from the most inspiring and knowledgeable speakers from the field. Held at the technical heart of the European Space Agency in the Netherlands, the lectures are now also available on YouTube.

The Case for Mars explores the different discoveries that are taking place on the Red Planet. In this episode, we discuss NASA's plan to send astronauts to Mars. In 2008, they started a program called "The Journey to Mars". They outlined three different phases that would guide the way to being able to send astronauts to the red planet. These phases include Earth Reliant, Proving Ground, and Earth Independent. Under each phase are multiple goals, some of which include sending robotic missions to Mars, continuing the ISS until 2024, and a manned mission to study an asteroid. We also discuss what the recent administration has changed, to make it easier/harder to get to Mars.

The Case for Mars explores the different discoveries that are taking place on the Red Planet. In this episode, we continue our discussion on developing a colony on Mars. In this episode, we explore the different methods of traveling across the Martian surface. We focus mainly on Martian Spacesuits that will be used for walking and possible rovers that could be used for driving. NASA, SpaceX, and many universities have developed possible Spacesuits that could be used on Mars, but the upcoming 2020 rover and it's SHERLOC experiment will help show how exactly radiation affects commonly used textiles. In terms of a Martian Buggy, the regolith (soil) on Mars is incredibly slick, almost like sand on Earth. Therefore creating a large vehicle could be challenging to explore in. It is thought that smaller (non-pressurized) cars will be used at first, with larger vehicles coming later to help build a colony and eventually travel further into the Martian terrain.

The Moon and Mars will probably be the first places in the Solar System that humanity will try to live after leaving the safety and security of Earth. But those worlds are still incredibly harsh environments, with no protection from radiation, little to no atmosphere, and extreme temperatures. Living on those worlds is going to be hard, it’s going to be dangerous. Fortunately, there are a few pockets on those worlds that’ll make it a tiny little bit easier to get a foothold in the Solar System: lava tubes.
