Mars can be your second home, humans can now colonise the red planet by 2022. Tech billionaire and the founder of SpaceX Elon Musk is planning for a journey to Mars, an effort to protect humanity.
The owner of Tesla Motors, Elon Musk is all set for a mission named - Mission "Heart of Gold," (in honor of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy). The craft could carry up to 100 people - but purportedly with a high chance travelers could die.
Elon Musk wants NASA to confirm on the Alien life in Mars, he doubts alien life on Mars. "There's really nothing on the surface of Mars, I think," said in a recent press event. There may be subterranean, chemotrophic bacteria and kicking them out would be rather difficult according to Elon Musk.
But, will people risk life for Mars? In a recent discussion with readers of the Guardian publication people shared their views on 'risking life' on the Martian adventure in the coming future. An Alabamian said that it would be a legendary to travel to Mars, a person who helps shape the identity of a whole new society, and the opportunity to be part of that is worth the risk of dying on the way there.
Another person from New Jersey said that civilizations do not progress without taking risks and making sacrifices. "If my death provides valuable insight into preventing future deaths in space, then it was worthwhile," he added.
Elon Musk, the thinker of Martian-journey says life can be sent to Mars, where nothing exists today and ensure if there is some kind of cataclysmic event on Earth. However, Steve Clifford, a researcher at the Lunar and Planetary Institute gave these highlights to Scientific American
"If life does exist somewhere on Mars, it has managed to survive there for billions of years," Steve Clifford said. "What is our curiosity compared to that?"
Steve Clifford also asked if curiosity gives humans the right to trespass on Mars, and without the necessary caution. Do you agree or are you ready to ride with the vision of Elon Musk for Mars?
Does it give us the right to trespass without extreme caution?"
