NASA declares: Humans can live on Mars!

NASA's chief scientist, Jim Green, said humans could appear on Mars after the agency's groundbreaking discoveries.

Last week, NASA was surprised to learn that its Curiosity Mars rover robot has found "life building blocks , " meaning primitive organic materials dating back 3 billion years. Molecules containing carbon and earth-like organic elements exist in the lake bottom mud, similar to the traces of microorganisms in sedimentary rocks on Earth.

The new findings help research on the possibility of survival on Mars leap a long step. Recently, NASA Chief Scientist Jim Green shared with USA Today about the intention to bring people to Mars in the near future.

It is expected that the first person will set foot on Mars in 2040. Before that, many scientists around the world have been planning to build a city on this planet.

According to Mr. Green, Mars is the most Earth-like planet in the Solar System. It has a beautiful view with majestic mountains, a giant volcano, ancient lakes, which have dried up but still hope one day to find water.

The active area of ​​the exploration robot is also where the ancient "life building blocks" were found on the bottom of the lake - (photo: NASA).

The weather on Mars is very harsh, today and tomorrow can be as wide as 170 degrees.(Photo: NASA).

However, people will have to deal with certain conditions because it is not Earth after all. Before the long-term plan, the first Mars citizens had to wear clothes 24/24.

The weather on Mars is very harsh, today and tomorrow can vary by 170 degrees, the average temperature is negative. Humans also need oxygen tanks because the atmosphere here is too much carbon dioxide.

In addition, we must be familiar with dust storms, occurring about every 26 months in the summer. Dust storms can cover sunlight for many days, making the sky always twilight on some months later.

It is the Curiosity Mars rover robot that is also in trouble. The dust storm that appeared in early June was quite strong, while Curiosity Mars rover was a solar powered robot. NASA fears it will not have enough energy to heat itself and be damaged.

Jim Green also revealed that the avant-garde astronauts will not refer to Mars for a walk. They have the task of establishing a farm to provide food for a wider community. Beans, asparagus and potatoes are the three most feasible crops for Mars. In addition, a 3D printer will be put up, using the planet's own dust to create things necessary for life.
