Have you heard of Mars
One? Science Fiction turning into reality? J
A couple of days ago I stumbled upon a
video clip about this incredulous project and thought it is definitely
worth sharing as It really caught my interest.
May be you have already heard about it but
if you haven't, this is an enormously ambitious project that large suppliers
from around the world are involved in currently and the ultimate
objective is human settlement on planet Mars. Mars one will establish
human settlement on planet Mars in 2023!
2013
This is a crucial year for this project as
this year the first group of astronauts will be selected for this mission. Anybody
who believe they are resilient and adaptable can apply as those are the primary
qualification needed and you basically need to be a creative and resourceful
person.
The astronauts will be trained through a
simulation process of the settlement in Mars in a replica based on Earth.
In 2016 a supply mission carrying food and other essential items such as
medicine, materials for construction and cultivation etc will land on
Mars.
2016-2022
Moving forward from 2016, they will be
focusing on finding an ideal location and will begin the preparation work for
human settlement. Exploration vehicles and rovers will be sent to carry
out the construction work.
Here's how the 'houses' or the human
habitat on Mars is expected to look like:
2023
The first group of astronauts will set foot
on Mars. Apparently, every part of this program will be broadcasted
to Earth 24/7/365.
Interesting Facts:
-
It
will take 7 months for the journey from Earth to Mars
-
The
astronauts will be stuck in a small transit vehicle carrying them to Mars
-
They
will be required to do 3 hours of exercises per day!
-
Only
canned food will be available for them
-
They
will not be showering using water but instead use towelettes!
-
On
Mars, they will be actually cultivating vegetable, grains etc
And here is the best out of the lot:
This is a one way ticket to Mars, so you cannot ever come
back to Earth!
Who wants to go?
I don’t mind J
