New plan that will have Mars Earth-like within a thousand years.

It's sad that I'll never be able to see this come true. I seriously consider moving if it was at Earth level this moment.

 

[DorkyFresh]

why? so we can screw up ANOTHER planet?

The way earth is going, we'll have to do something like that sooner or later. In 1900, the world's population was 1.5 billion. By 2005 it was 6.5 billion. 5 billion f**king people in 100 years.

I think the prospect of colonising Mars is fascinating. Without knowing any of the science behind it, I'm sure it will happen eventually.

Just imagine, another planet with humans on it. It would develop a unique culture all of its own. In the long long term, I wonder how it would effect us as a species, evolution-wise.

I don't know, if we transplanted the same animals and plants I don't think it would be too drastic evolution-wise.

I think it would lead to a "Federation" of colonized planets.

Some people claim that we terraform the moon, but one-sixth gravity would also mean one-sixth atmosphere. Also, nobody knows how the low gravity would affect humans after years. Could they walk on Earth?

I find this stuff to be very fascinating

Good find Kritish

 

[Kritish]

Could they terraform places on Earth to make them sutible for farming?
That could be a godsend to the population problem and to Africa.

It wouldn't be drastic in the short term, but if we're still around in a few hundred thousand years it will, unless by that stage intergalactic travel is so fast it'd be no different traveling from Earth to Mars than traveling from London to Sydney, which is of course quite probable (especially with stuff like that space elevator).

But when groups of the same species are isolated from each other over a long period of time, they evolve into different species. That's evolution.

I don't think so. Much of the problem within Africa is that the Europeans came in and left it like locusts, barren and pretty much a literal s**thole, and it's getting worse due to inept government and internal conflict.

That's a long ass ride to get there, hope people will have something to entertain themselves on the way up

 

[OverMyHead]

But our racist hearts will not allow that sort of thing.

The whites will probably ban all other races from entering their new homeland. Only rich people would be allowed to go there, and the poor left to die.

isn't it like that right now

I doubt that.

I don't want to be the first people to move to mars. I'd let them work out the kinks first. Like those first fools who bout the PS3.

I dont know why, but that line brought a smile to my face t:

Without knowing any of the science behind, it, I'm sure the dead rising and forming a brass band will happen eventually.

Ha ha. I mean, I'm a lay person when it comes to space exploration, but it's obvious we'll at least visit Mars eventually, and Earth won't be able to support us forever at the rate we're expanding and consuming its resources.

In the long term (and I mean long term), we'll have to colonise other planets if we are to survive.

Mars, *****es!

well, I won't be around to see it...

 

[Galactus]

*waits for the lunch to be ready*

 

[Kyalesyin]

Its really a shame that I won't be around to see this. We might be able to get out there and not screw it up.

Shame there isn't any oil on Mars. If there was, we'd be there already.

Astronaughts who has been in space a mater of weeks and do mandatory exercise while in orbit still have to re ajust to the gravity of the earth, same goes for astronaughts on a lunar mission, having people who stay or are even born on the moon and live there for a period of tiem would have huge impacts on their bodies. I don't know if a person who lived on the moon since conception would be able to survive on earth period, forget walking on it...

 

[Ice-man]

good find, although i think they were mocking mr. z what ever his name was.
i think it could deffinitly happen. mars was like earth at one time, and we can make it like earth again.

or else our earth will go the same way mars did, dry, cold, and barren.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

We need to terraform Jupiter, *****es!

I want rings around my damn planet!
