Don't strive for perfection but strive for progression!

Hey, I just want to share the love. I really enjoyed this documentary. Very detailed, ringing, realistic and unrealistic expectation into full come I get it

A new propulsion system needs to be studied getting to Mars . Nuclear propulsion rocket I read could get you to Mars in 45 days. Why isn't this being studed more to make it so.

The Artemis programme reads a lot like NASA’s 90-day report, which costs a ton of money to build, launch and deliver a bunch of infrastructure which doesn’t get humans to anywhere new. Robert Zubrin’s Mars Semi-Direct plan has much to commend it: less expensive, a shorter time frame and more science gets done.

I think during my life time..go go go explore. I like the sounds of the narrator 🎉❤

Look no matter how many people want to go to Mars, we can terraform it all we like, but we will never be able to give it a magnetic field and deadly radiation will always be an issue. That's the biggest issue that needs to be overcome before literally anything else.

That was a brilliant video. Thank you, I've just subscribed.

What about sending automatic humanoid robots to mars to do agriculture food for the mission.

We r going to Mars within my lifetime, I'm happy about it❤

I like the video, but there are two MASSIVE, BASIC, AND FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEMS that appear to have been overlooked, and have also not been addressed or even mentioned in this video: -

1) How the LACK of EARTH-LIKE GRAVITY will have SERIOUS DETRIMENTAL effects on the crew!
2) The amount of Radiation protection NEEDED for such a long journey in space and for the time living on Mars.


So first, let's tackle the gravity problem:-
At best, with the current rocket technology available to us, the shortest length of time it will take to journey to Mars is six months, only achievable when its elliptical orbit around the Sun is at its closest to the Earth. This happens roughly every two years. Otherwise, launching outside these close orbit dates would entail a nine / ten month travel time to the Red Planet. Then, once the crew have landed, they'll have to spend at least 18 months on the Martian surface waiting for the next close Earth orbit to come around again before they can leave. Obviously, the journey home will take another six months, so by the end of this whole endeavour, they'll have spent 12 months in zero gravity (the six months journeys there and back) and 18 months on a planet with a third of the gravity of Earth, in total, experiencing 30 months of no Earth gravity.

Even if they exercised four hours every day, after such a prolonged experience of no Earth gravity, they'll still end up suffering with some form of muscle atrophy and deterioration of the skeleton, slowing of their cardiovascular system functions, decreased production of red blood cells, balance disorders, eyesight disorders, changes in their immune systems, loss of body mass, and increased nasal congestion. Again, all because of such prolonged exposure to a lack of Earth gravity. And, assuming they survive the homeward bound journey after being so compromised, they'd probably have to wear an Exoskeleton for at least 18 months, just to help them get around and recover some of what they've lost.

The "Hard-Science" 2021Science-Fiction film, Stowaway, shows how such a journey to Mars should be done. That is, utilising a central unit / rocket pushing through space with the crewed ship - I'm assuming here that in reality, they would use the Space X vehicle called Star Ship because it has the necessary space/volume - tethered to one end of a spinning / rotating 250m long truss - spinning at 4x a minute to generate and simulate the necessary earth-like gravity needed - and a counter balance tethered to the other end. If Star Ship copied this idea, then the counter balance and / or the central unit could both carry the extra fuel needed to make a controlled decent onto the Martian surface. The Star Ship would then re-attach back to the tether for the journey home, giving the crew much needed earth-like gravity to reacclimatise their bodies after 18 months of 33% gravity on Mars, so that by the time they come home to Mother Earth, they should be fit enough to re-engage with our gravity again.

And now the deep space travel radiation and radiation FROM living on Mars problems.
The hull of any spaceships travelling for so long in space, and the hulls of any Mars Habitats and Mars Exploration vehicles, would need to have at least 15 inches of lead lining to stop the Gamma radiation from penetrating the ship/habitat/vehicle and killing the crew!!... no where is this basic fact mentioned in the video.

Men on Mars will be the biggest reality TV show ever.

Awesome video!!! I really enjoyed it, thank you!

If someone tell you he went to Mars within 3 days on round trip, no one will believe him, except believers. Only believers trust him.

[timellis]

Elon Musk said he was going to send a bunch of his robots to Mars to set everything up.

Any way I look at it, it seems that the most important thing is to have an amazingly strong and safe, reliable engine that can work anywhere and anytime. What is built around this engine seems almost incidental, but of course it is not.

[QuinnMallory-odhw]

The first problem is developing a magnetic field shield which is going to need a combination of new magnetic materials and a huge amount of electrical power to work, this could protect the spacecraft as it makes the journey to Mars from solar radiation. Secondly you need another on Mars to make a base, and possibly a third massive one at a station at the Lagrange point to possibly shield Mars in the future. Alot of power and physics and technology we don't have yet.

[entertainmentsolutions]

Absolutely brilliant video, great visuals & also narrating . I hope I’m alive to see this happen. ❤

[anthonyromano]

I like the idea of travelling to Mars😮
