Why should we colonize on Mars?
By:Tyler Poirier
Introduction
Why should we go to our neighbor planet the red planet. Well let's put it this way we're killing the earth slowly, bit by bit, pebble by pebble. From Nuclear war to polluting the air with car fumes. So eventually the earth is going to die. And we need to get a plan B for the future. Venus is going to be way to hot for us, I would rather cooler then hotter. So why not the next best thing Mars. With only one organization to do it with... MARS ONE!!!!
The benefits for people on Earth?
When eventually the earth is going to die from us from radiation to pollution. Sure we are trying to help the world by using recycle bins and electric cars but the damage is done. Global warming is going to put water levels over normal. Florida is already below sea level so now it would be under the sea. And we will be with them. Down there. So anyways the benefits. We'll be able to start over and have a new planet. We'll be able to find new ways to survive on different habitats. We will be able to explore a new planet. Discover new and interesting things. In other words we will be able to learn more.
Earth like planets
As you can see in the picture below the plant to the right looks a lot like earth? Well they're practically the same thing except Kepler-186f (right) is just a tad bit bigger. Well you might be wondering why we can't just go to that planet well it's 500 light years away, in other words it's really far away.
