Building a Marsbase is a Horrible Idea: Let’s do it! 

Ok

Hi

Thanks for the educational videos!

Finally a video 🎈🎈

Except that one with the elephant! Lol

But birds will apparently also beat humans to Mars and then we'll probably lose the inevitable interplanetary war. This channel has opened my eyes to how much of a threat birds truly are.

charlie mann my head hurts.

@@ressljs What? so we like to simulate universes where instead of humans rule it, birds rule it. wait. oof, wrong timeline. i need to get back to my time.

Its funnier when you remember each bird is unique and was designed for a patreon supporter. so basically, Kurzgesagt really enjoys murdering its supporters.

Samuel Gregorian The United States are pathetic I agree. They use fahrentheit and feet for temperature and distance and they are inferior to Celsius and Metres

@@aaebsssb9914 they also use mm/dd/yyyy instead of dd/mm/yyyy that's so illogical

Gos R. yeah

Gos R. mm/dd/yyyy. 10/08/1976. “October the 8th 1976”...that’s why, logic has nothing to do with it language does, that’s just how North America says the date in English, I understand that “8th of October 1976” is valid and understood, just not the custom currently.

Actually it's 720,000 Lmao

It would be more like 1.2e+6 (20 Minutes) for Radio to come from Earth to Mars then other 20 back

Even if the Earth and Mars is perfectly allined it would take 3 minutes and few seconds to transform data if the settilites has no delay (but they have) so it would be at least 20000 ping and probably 8-10 times more then theay are in opposite side (actually when they are in opposite sides it might not connect at all)

No wonder they know so much about humans and planet Earth, we've been bamboozled

I support this conspiracy theory

actually this is true because birds are actually aliens that came from mars to earth

if we really wanted to we could 100% do it today

@@HS-ig4ly Check out what NASA's Robert Frost has to say about this kind of claim. He's brutally honest about what it takes, even if money and manpower is not limited. The reality is some of these are really difficult problems to overcome. The eventual blindness, for example. Because we evolved on a planet with 1g, we have evolved in such a way that fluid behind our eyes pools at the bottom of sacs. When humans spend time in zero G, that fluid no longer pools and the shape of our eyes -- including the lenses -- literally deform, causing irreversible vision damage. How would you deal with that? We learned about this problem from long-term ISS missions, which is *precisely* why we have the ISS in the first place: To learn about living -- or spending long amounts of time -- in space. We need to build a moon base first and iron out all the problems we can in a "local" stage rehearsal for an eventual Mars colony. On the moon, help is only three days away and evacuation is a possibility, whereas if something goes wrong on Mars, the soonest we can get there is about 9 months, and that's only if there's perfect timing and an optimal launch window with relation to both planets' orbits. Likewise, on the moon we can learn from our mistakes while we're still protected from radiation. En route to Mars and on Mars itself, we won't be. If you want to make the claim that we could do it today, you need to explain how. The burden of proof is on you.

That's so true I'm retired and I just started investing in these crypto currencies and I've made $29,000 with $3.000.

Tech tends not to appear until there is a demand. If there is a serious desire to go to mars, the tech needed will be invented. Thankfully, SpaceX doesn't work on NASA time schedules. Tethering the ships together and spinning them like a bola for artificial gravity is the simplest option for reducing zero g health issues.

It’s the journey. The problem solving involved with all the challenges faced make humankind more adaptable and resilient. Otherwise we stay on a “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” mantra and never learn about all the potentially better ways we could be doing things because we’ve never needed to deal with those kinds of problems before.

Same way our ancestors would never have believed it to be possible for humans to fly look at us now. A viable yet distant future would be to use genetic engineering with tools like CRISPR to modify humans to be adaptable to space

I get what are you saying, to my knowledge we still need to develop some key technologies and better defined plans, but when Kennedy gave the deadline for getting to the moon by humans, some scientists on the field believed to be pure fantasy(Not because it was theoretically impossible but precisely because there were too many practical challenges). And even thou the Moon Landing wouldn't have been possible without the astronomical(heh) amount of founding because of the Cold War, you always need the passionate scientist and engineers to make the advances that funding alone can't get you. And while you can say that we didn't gain anything from the moon landing, I'd say that is totally false because 1st, which is often pointed out, technologies developed for space are some of the more useful tech for us people down here on earth. But even more important than that imo, samples and rocks from the moon help us to understand how the earth was created, how the solar system was created and how the universe was created or, to some degree, how the universe works. So I believe some of that discoveries will happen with Mars, even considering that we have been exploring and taking some samples for years now. And yeah, the way Mars can be a great base for further space explorations is something like when you make a travel in car with your destination 12hrs+ away. It would be nice to have more fuel and supplies somewhere on the way(I know you don't consume fuel on Space like on a place with constant gravity or atmosphere but still). Talking about that, the other reason is precisely Mars have noticeable less gravity than Earth and a super thin atmosphere, those are the kind of conditions make it way easier to launch rockets, the same reason why the moon could be a great exploration base too, the moon even having "easy" access to produce rocket fuel and water. And this bases shouldn't be rebundant either, with more infrastructure out there more versatile and fastest space exploration should be. Of course, even though all of this is true or possibly, it's theoretical for now but sometimes humanity makes big jumps between what is theoretical and practical, on the last century this happened very often. In fact, there are stories that sci-fi inspired future scientists to discover or explore those topics(maybe a silly example). I think is obvious I'm all for colonizing Mars if possible, but I understand that it may be impossible now or forever. But Im sure the future astronauts will be some that understand the risks better than anyone, on the mission to Mars, because other than train like crazy is good to remember most astronauts have PhD in Physics or Engineering, so they should have the risks crystal clear compared to us.

@@cabo1656 thanks for your well written comment. I am opening to the idea that it could happen, but I really think we are so far away from a colony on Mars, a small, cramped base for a few brave astronauts perhaps, but they are very different things.

@@milinkerhe haha I admit I'm a bit of a dreamer for the potential science, that is why I like to study it(thou my major level of expertise is biology lol). But yeah, that it's why like to look back at different eras of great discoveries on knowledge from different cultures, and all of them put great importance on the knowledge it self on some way and/or on the people that created knowledge(a lot of different astronomical knowledge was created by astrologers or some form of shamans, that originally wanted to study the sky for predictions or religion). And well, we get the correlation that when we emphasize the importance of knowledge, knowledge is created exponentially, maybe is kinda obvious but I think is still important to keep on mind. And about Mars, yes of course, to my understanding the more optimistic projections are that a colony would be in various decades and other stimates are 100+ years. I guess my point is that I want it to be missions to Mars as soon as possible because that is what make us improve, the technology and science(of course "ASAP" while mataining security standards, but it's always a risk being sloppy and the people in charge must be always vigilant). I mean I know there have been a lot of advances, but even then it's not secret that NASA has been on something like stagnation for many years. And without clear objectives or missions, the technology or science never will advance as fast as it could. In a more active environment, one never know what crazy technology can come out, but again I'm fully aware about the current projections just that there is way to better the chances and I personally believe that as soon as humanity hit milestone on Space its better for everyone, hopefully. Ups, sorry for the long text, I think it's exciting talking about this stuff.

In all honesty a moon base is harder to maintain as it’s in no atmosphere and moon dust is so fine that it gets everywhere and into everything which damages everything including critical components, it’s much finer than Mars dust. There were actually healthy risks for the astronauts that landed on the moon because they would breathe it into their lungs which would damage their lungs. So its easier to get a lunar base to the moon but its harder to maintain while its harder to get a base to mars but easier to maintain.
