Abstract: |
The article from New Scientist explores the feasibility and challenges of establishing a self-sustaining city on Mars. The authors, Kelly and Zach Weinersmith, question the practicality of such a venture, highlighting the harsh conditions on Mars, including toxic dust, cosmic radiation, and gravity-related health issues. They emphasize the need for more research on human reproduction in space and caution against overlooking the complexities of settling Mars. Ultimately, the authors advocate for responsible exploration of space while addressing pressing issues on Earth. [Extracted from the article] |
