colony on Mars? Do you think

people will actually live in

Mars someday?

 “When curiosity is alive,

we are attracted to many

things, we discover many

worlds”
-Eric Booth
As human beings, we are in constant progress,
because we can not be calm down knowing
that there is still a lot to discover.
 Mars In general

Facts
Two moons
Distance from Earth (225 million
kilometers
Small planet
Why Mars?
Is it a desire or a need?

Actually, organized live in

Mars seems imposible.

why do we even try?

 Colonies on mars
¡That means the possibility that someday, the

human will take Mars as a permanent home¡

There are some problems, without a spacesuit,

a person wouldn't survive in Mars for a lot of

time.
What do we need

to have a colony

on Mars?
Problems:
The lack of an atmosphere.
The amount of the radiation

entering the planet.
