Can we grow food on Mars? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Paul Mecurio learn about a new NASA project Plant Trek and the challenges of surviving on other planets with astrobiologist Kennda Lynch.
Thanks to our partners at Ford for sponsoring this episode. Learn more about the all-electric Ford Mustang Mach-E® SUV at www.ford.com/suvs/mach-e/
Learn how scientists are trying to work with Martian regolith to discover solutions for farming on the red planet. What are the major differences between Earth soil and Martian or Lunar regolith? We discuss perchlorate, The Martian, and the main challenges of Martian regolith.
Could Matt Damon in The Martian have really survived on home-grown Martian potatoes? We break down what he got right, what step he was missing, and the health effects of eating Martian produce. What would Kennda do as an astrobiologist if aliens came to Earth?
What is in the Martian regolith? Learn what compounds we are working with, what similarities it has with what we have on Earth, and what we plan to do about radiation. We discuss the potential of terraforming Mars and what is the coolest part of being an astrobiologist. What can plants grown on Mars teach us about Earth?
Thanks to our Patrons Konrad Kalinko, Shawn Allison, Kevin Mitchell, Skylar Gravatt, Terry Sullivan, Carol Anklam, and Chantal for supporting us this week.

Also, even though it would be difficult to get and energy intensive at first, you could maybe build up a large pile of "regolith" that has been washed with water that is then later evaporated to get the perchloriates out. it should at least great reduce the concentrations.

I loved this episode ❤ Really great to hear from experts in the field. 👍🏻 Just a quick side note: It always bugs me when people only talk about the movie the Martian and not the book, which is much more complex and "accurate". For example, in the book he not only used martian regulus, but had some earth soil, which gave him lots of the microbes needed to grow plants. Of course the bad composition of mars regulus would have still been a problem,just saying that the book is better and more scientifically accurate.

In a recent episode, Neil mentioned how we didn't make planes with the steam engine because it would have just taken too big of a steam engine to fly. Then we get the combustion engine, now we can get that much power in a small enough form factor. Exactly like this, we don't have the tech today to terraform a planet. But we're 1 key innovation away from it being possible. Not seeing this as not just as possible but inevitable (assuming we don't destroy ourselves) is short sighted imo.

one can only hope. On the other hand, mankind has a pretty decent understanding now about physics and we reached some hard to break barriers created by nature laws. We also have a very good idea what would be necessary to "terraform mars", which makes it pretty unlikely. Even Scifi is not coming up with new stuff it seems. There is still a lot to understand in physics, especially how all the parts work together, but the probability of surprises gets lower and lower. For example, we have a good idea now how elements work and how they are created in stars and how much energy you need and how instable they are at some point. So the assumption that we will not find an alien ship build out of unknown elements is not nearly as "wild guessed" as it would have been a 100 years ago. Just a very educated guess now, so still a guess - fingers crossed.

600 years ago Da Vinci was designing flying machines, so maybe if you asked the average uneducated person 300 years ago if it would be possible to fly then they would have said no. But today most elementary school children have a broader range of knowledge, especially about science, than most people 300 years ago. That statement is a non starter because of the level of knowledge we have today compared to then, and we pretty much have figured out how everything technically works. No matter what kind of tech we have in the future we won't be able to terraform an entire planet to make it work like Earth because no matter what that tech may become physics will still be physics.

@@robo5013 to terraform mars you need to heat it up and preferably have a magnetosphere. We already proved on earth it’s possible to pump gases into the atmosphere to heat things up (without even trying). Making a magnetosphere is the tricky part, restarting the planets dynamo core is way beyond human control, even in 300 years, however an external way of making a magnetosphere is much more likely. There have been ideas of using orbiting shields, but my my favorite idea is using Mars’s moons as a station to fire off charged particles into Martian orbit creating plasma torus that’s acts as a artificial magnetosphere. This is not out of human control, escaping the solar system may never happen. If that’s the case then humanity better push to terraform both earth and mars in the coming centuries.

@@SolarisSaber Making planet sized shields is science fiction, not science. Same with plasma guns from those tiny little asteroids that orbit Mars and will one day crash into it. Where are you going to get the materials to create a planet sized shield? Don't say we'll just mine asteroids, see below about cost. How long would it take to construct? If you create a shield to block the solar winds you'll also be blocking the light. How do you propose to heat the planet? Build tens of thousands of coal and gas fueled power stations? Constantly ship that fuel there? Send hundreds of millions of cars and drive them around? That's part of what's heating Earth right now. By less than 2 degrees Celsius in two hundred years. You need way more than 2 degrees warming on Mars. Humans in space lose about 1-2% of their bone density in hips and spine per month. Women giving birth on mars will shatter their pelvises and break their spines. We don't even know if a human fetus will develop in space. What affect does weightlessness, or Mars' much lower gravity, have on a developing fetus? We evolved to live on Earth, not another planet. In the end, even if all the thousands of problems were technically solvable who's going to pay for it? It would require capitol to be invested in those solutions. Capitol is only invested for profit. What's the profit motive of colonizing Mars? Don't say to 'save mankind.' That's not a profit motive, just look at what people do to make a profit at the expense of other's well being throughout history and today. Human nature is human nature and will not change. There will never be a Star Trek like utopia. Colonizing Mars isn't science, it's science fiction. And remember that fiction means make believe. It's a fantasy, not something that will become reality.

How about we take care of our own planet first. We've literally been doing the opposite for thousands of years.

It might happen some day, but that's far, far in the future.. I do hope we some day manage to thrive on another planet, because Earth won't be here forever.

wonder how deep the perchlorates go in the soil. If it is just part of the top layers maybe you could use the lower layers to grow food without the risk of perchlorates.

27:00 to be fair to the ATIP program about UAP's, the overall, primary focus was on the occurrences of poorly understood weather causing things like ball lightning, and sensor artifacts that shouldn't be, and optical illusions, and how that might threaten aircraft...

Question? Will we need to take iodine as a daily medication to prevent Ammonium Perchlorate ("AP") from bonding with your thyroid?

One thing is making me optemististic about the capability of human to terraform Mars is the fact that human was able in a matter of a short time to transform earth's future, in good or bad future is not the question imortantly thing is human is able to change a planet dynamic.

We need both Chuck nice and this guy together plus the guest on an episode. Might be a long episode but the jokes would be rolling 😂 and the info would easily be understandable for people like myself (uneducated curious mind) 😅

You would feed it mass and charge at different rates ofc, the energy would come from the mass mostly, but the charge would be critical for control. Especially if you are going to juggle many such black holes at once in the same generator .

In soil, you also usual have other referees like fungus usually, you could say that soils usually change through a sort of "adiabatic" slow process of succession, something dies falls onto an already established microcosm and so on, what this is about is trying to create a completely new simplified soil that is already in such a pseudo equilibrium, which is difficult, we have been dealing with the problems of that sort for a really long time, in agriculture, and whennwe do that it introduces a broken equilibrium in the succession process of soils as part of the biosphere, this problem is sort of the same kind of problem as that but in a more elementary way than changing the plants to grow there andnraking up the soil layers. I think we need more commedians on it. 🍻
