PLANET MARS

From the 23nd Annual International Mars Society Convention, held as a Virtual Convention worldwide on the Internet from October 15-18, 2020. It was a historic and record event for the Mars Society with over 10,000 attendeees, 150 speakers, and over 100,000 viewers. The four-day International Mars Society Convention, held every year since 1998, brings together leading scientists, engineers, aerospace industry representatives, government policymakers and journalists to talk about the latest scientific discoveries, technological advances and political-economic developments that could help pave the way for a human mission to the planet Mars. Conference Papers and some presentations will be available on www.MarsPapers.org For more information on the Mars Society, visit our website at www.MarsSociety.org

Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/ To become an Interplanetary Species we need to colonize another planet, and Mars will be our first target. To establish a base there, and a future settlement, we need to get their first, so we will also examine the Aldrin Cycler, a type of spacecraft that may make traveling to other worlds far easier.

Coprates Chasma is located at the eastern end of the Valles Marineris canyon system, and always provides fantastic-looking images. This observation shows very steep slopes on the wall of the chasma, with extensive sedimentary fans. Additionally, we see thick layers of bedrock. The chasma is about 966 kilometers (600 miles) in length. Could there have been a lake here in the ancient past? This is a non-narrated clip. Black and white is less than 5 km across; enhanced color is less than 1 km. For full images including scale bars, see the below link. Music: “In the Void” by Amulets (used by permission).

Mars has changed since it formed 4.6 billion years ago. When life started on Earth ~4 billion years ago, Mars was habitable too, with volcanism, a magnetic field, surface water and a thick atmosphere. Today, Mars is cold and dry, with a thin atmosphere and harsh surface. In this lecture Professor Andrew Coates will discuss the search for life beyond Earth on our closest target, using the Rosalind Franklin rover. A lecture by Andrew Coates The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/mars Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597. This tradition continues today with all of our five or so public lectures a week being made available for free download from our website. There are currently over 2,000 lectures free to access or download from the website.

A Context Camera image shows sinuous ridges and possible layers at this location, which is within an alluvial-fan-bearing crater. One possible interpretation: erosion has formed inverted channels and incised into distal-alluvial-fan or deltaic materials. HiRISE resolution needed to measure channel widths and layer orientations. The ridges remain fairly sharp-looking despite the passing of time. The blueish sand is likely basalt (volcanic origin) and there are bright exposure of bedrock throughout. This is a non-narrated clip, using the center enhanced color swath, less than 1 km across, and 257 km above the surface. For full images including scale bars, see the below link.

Welcome to MarsTalk, a science YouTube series where we explore everything that we as a society are doing to settle the red planet. We're just two very curious space enthusiasts asking all the questions, making videos along the way, and having fun. We talk to experts and researchers to get the low down on topics such as what we'll eat on Mars, where we'll live, how we'll get there, and countless others. Is there something you're curious about that you want us to cover? Shoot us a message either through social media or our website! We aren't joking when we say we want to cover everything and so no question is too small. Facebook: @MarsTalkChannel Twitter: @mars_talk Website: www.marstalk.org We're part of the Mars Society's Education and Outreach team and we're super excited to share that it's been completely revamped. Tons of new content and resources available to everyone! Check it out here: www.education.marssociety.org/home Also, the 23rd Annual International Mars Society Convention is coming up soon! Completely online and free! Takes place from October 15-18, 2020. For more information on how to register and the itinerary, click here: https://www.marssociety.org/conventions/2020/ Thanks again, we're excited to go on this journey with you and hopefully share some awesome insights along the way.

Taking a Picture of MARS Through my Telescope. Telescope Used: https://bit.ly/2Bx23rQ Camera Used: https://bit.ly/3eywFY6 I connect a camera to my Celestron Edge HD 11 telescope to take a close-up picture of the planet Mars from my backyard. Mars Opposition takes place on October 13, 2020. The red planet will make its closest approach to Earth, appearing 22.4 arcsec. in diameter! The final image is a stack of the best 1000 frames (through each RGB filter) of 15000 taken with the ZWO ASI290mm Mini. There are certainly better pictures of Mars online, but this is my best image of Mars to date! Thank you for watching, and clear skies! Perserverance = Perseverance 🙂

Take a quick look at Elon Musk's very optimistic schedule. He wants to have SpaceX Starships ready to fly humans to Mars in 2024. Our analysis shows that while it's certainly not impossible, it's also not probable. While we're here let's talk about launch windows and How soon do you think SpaceX Starships will fly humans to Mars? https://patreon.com/smallstars https://twitter.com/smvllstvrs https://instagram.com/smvllstvrs https://twitch.tv/smvllstvrs http://teespring.com/stores/the-smallstars-shop https://www.amazon.com/s?rh=n%3A7141123011%2Cp_4%3Asmallstars *correction* - the 6 month trajectory to Mars is a 2 year free return trajectory back to earth, not 1 year.

Here we see a wrinkle ridge that divides a channel to its northwest from a series of collapse pits. The scene is surrounded by old lava flows in Elysium Planitia. The collapse pits are very interesting because their elongate shapes and their sourcing of incised channels reworked by viscous flows have obvious similarities to larger channels such as Athabasca, Marte, and Kasei Valles, yet they are considerably smaller in scale. By studying the same geologic process at different scales, we can understand it more fully. (Note: in this clip, north is to the left.) This is a non-narrated clip.

With Mars opposition coming up in mid October, Shaun Fletcher will explain his imaging and processing techniques for the planet Mars.

“Hic sunt dracones” is the Latin phrase for the prosaic “Here be dragons” that was often thought to have appeared on medieval maps, although it’s only attested in one place. It’s associated with dangerous or unexplored territories*. In our image, a craggy ridge of rock has formed through small, innumerable landslides along the sides of a large mound. The feathery deposits that blanket and surround this ridge formed as the rock broke up and flowed down off it. Overall, the landform looks like the tail of a dragon. Music: “Oceans, Rivers, Canyons” by ELPHNT (used by permission). (*The actual classical phrase was “Here be lions,” denoting the same thing.) This is a non-narrated clip.

Hello wonderful person and welcome! My name is Anton and due to the 2020 housing crisis that's going on in some parts of the world, I ended up losing my apartment because the rent became too unbearable. As a result while I'm looking for a new place (probably 3-4 weeks or so), I made some pre-recorded long videos and a few other videos that will be posted daily. In this video, we will talk about the largest Martian craters and what created them. Since this was made sometime last year, we have since discovered a bigger crater on Ganymede and the video about this is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OW2dXEuE_4 Hope you enjoy them and see you soon.
