Essay on Life on Mars

UFO's AND ALIENS: I think the government and NASA are keeping the truth about life outside our planet hidden from society. How can we be so arrogant and think that we here on earth are the only living beings in this gigantic universe with billions of stars galaxies, suns, solar systems and planets. Everyday there are sightings all over the world by citizens, commercial pilots, and military personnel. I think we have been visited and offered help to benefit mankind with technologies that can…

of a human mission to planet Mars has been capturing the attention of everybody. It has manifested itself in cinema, art, and literature. In order for this to happen scientist have to determine if Mars can support life. On November 26, 2011 NASA launched a robotic space probe mission to Mars, called “Mars Science Laboratory”. This mission successfully landed Curiosity rover in Mars on August 6, 2012 (Space). The objectives of this mission included investigating Mars’ habitability, studying its…

order to accomplish its goal of exploration. Similarly, observations of other planets and celestial bodies will provide valuable information to all areas of science. Geologists observe the makeup of asteroids and planets, Biologists search for new life, Chemists study new chemical compounds, and Physicists learn about the complexities of astrophysics. Space exploration offers such incredible opportunities for all scientific disciplines that it would be a travesty not to take advantage of them.…

Mars One, how has this project been an advantage to our life? Founders Bas Lansdrop and Arno Weilders dreamed of stepping on the red planet but could not do it alone. Traveling to Mars should be pretty exciting but the extensive amount of preparations, twisted monetary issues and lifestyle changes for the explorers leave a ton of up in the air questions. Mars One has its contributions to society and mankind but is a great debate with valid points on both sides. With the process of colonizing…

NASA is planning for the launch date of the Mars rover to be 2020.the rover will be built on human curiosity. There will be differences in the rover the differences will be determined on the last rover sent to Mars. The scientist will be putting in landing system, including a sky crane and a heat shield. The rover body can be created without doing any other building or research. This will reduce the overall risk for the mission, while saving money and time on development. One of the rover…

Mars, the fourth planet away from the sun, is our next door neighbor. Since Mars is pretty close to Earth (compared to other planets) and we have the technology; people will move there and never come back. This one way ticket to Mars is called Mars One. People have made this the experience of the century, and each day we learn more and more about Mars. Leaving Earth to go to Mars probably means leaving your whole life on Earth and starting a new life on a whole new different planet that you…

• • Introduction Mars, a rocky, frozen, geologically dead and dry planet in our Solar system, but has polar ice caps and atmosphere, seasonal patterns, canyons, volcanoes and valleys.(nasa journey to mars) Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and in possible habitable position similar to Earth. Mars is the most intriguing and most observed object in space after the Moon for centuries, and a reason is very simple; Mars is visible from Earth in nighttime. Observation from the Earth…

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Mars Exploration Rover Mission (MER) is an ongoing space exploration mission of the planet Mars utilising two robotic rovers named Spirit and Opportunity launched on June 10 and July 7, 2003, respectively from Cape Canaveral, Florida, USA [1]. The mission’s primary goal is to “Determine Whether Life Ever Arose on Mars” (NASA) through the search for clues in soils and rocks that suggest past water activity on the planet’s surface. The…

Without a doubt, one of the greatest mysteries that the world wants to know is whether or not there was life on Mars. Not only this, but if we can eventually get life on Mars. Well, NASA's rover Curiosity gives the world some spirit that perhaps the opportunity of achieving this is possible. NASA' ROVER CURIOSITY EXPLORING MARS Curiosity has been exploring Mars for quite a while now. As a matter of fact, it has been since 2012. Just recently, a photo was surfaced on the web from this rover and…

Mars and Earth: Same Same but Different "We know how much radiation is out there, waiting for us between Earth and Mars, but we’re not sure how the human body is going to react to it" says Frank Cucinotta, Space radiation health project of NASA (Burgess & Dubbs, 2007). A new adventure comes along when there is no other giant planet and limited space to block during a long voyage to Mars. Mars has always been the final destination that many scientists turn to in terms of colonization of other…
