Life on Mars.

Do you believe that due to the evidence that water may still be on mars, that there is still life on it? Even bacteria counts, ya know.

I believe we humans might be able to settle and live on mars, but is therre life already there? i dont think so. Maybe somewhere else thier is though

Humans would never survive on Mars. Nor the Moon. Humans would experience asphyxia and either kill each other or go insane. No planet is like earth. Life such as bacteria may be life, but it couldn't survive on the planet Earth, or any other place. Just like a human would not survive long on another extraterrestrial Planet.

People could probably survive on Mars, either through terraforming or capsules.

They do pretty well on the ISS after all

Your proof?
(Not that I disagree/agree)

I think he's just playing with numbers (statistically speaking there is probably other life)

However, whilst the numbers tell us it is probable that say.....Henry Smith live in London in 1897....we can't know that to be true until we are presented with evidence for Henry Smith.
We have a belief, it is justified, but we cannot tell if it is true, so misses out on the last requirement for it to be 'knowledge'

To get to Mars it takes about 2-4 years depending on what and how fast you go. Aboard the ISS, Astronauts return him every 8 months-1 year.
So they will not experience and Space related Gravity pressure on the mind.
Even if the astronauts will dwell in a place where they do have gravity, it is a different atmosphere and Mars Storms Will leave no facility alive in 3-4 years of being built on there.


And as to Humans to live on Mars. Every Astronaut that is soon going to space, is given a psychological Test. To test if they are mentally stable and able to take on the durations. I bet you 3/4 of the earth people would have to stay behind because they are not fit to go.

You don't know that as now facilities are there

life is passable on mars. But we only face 2 problems I see as needs to be fixed firsts, The atmosphere and breath able air!!!! These we need to fix first before even thinking of in habiting mars. Same thing with the moon. Other whys we would end up like this'' then death.

The mental, state of the astronauts would not take it.

Since the topic isnt a month oldd yet, I think Ill answer this. There most likely is life on mars. But the thing is. Can you even se it? You said bacteria, pretty good, but what about uni cellular orgainisims? Some as big as cells. Tiny little molucles just floating around.

Bacteria are uni-cellular

But Still. Habitating Mars. Is not in our reach just yet.

You said bacteria, pretty good, but what about uni cellular orgainisims?

You made it sound like there was a difference

Oh, sorry, I dont mean it like that.

Its not the only thing. We started learning about life in mars. Our teacher said that unicellular orgainisims xouls have a slight chance of being there. Like little molucles.

Indeed, at one point, but anything there now that was there 3 million years ago is probable just the carcass cells.

Mars is a Cold Planet. Sooner or later there will be an astronaut that undergoes asphyxia.

You are right. Humans Curiosity, will stop at nothing.

Nice analogy.

Anyways, I always thought Mars alo had a varied tempeture like earth, or at least slightly differeing, such as warm days, and colder nights.

Correct.But the Voyage to be flawless?
