Mars’ nature. Space is an observable universe where astronomers from the NASA and scientists are trying to figure out a life that may benefit the human race. Or a threat that may bring calamity to the world. Why is this being mentioned? Well we’re seen as tiny grains of sand compared to the immense universe so we should be conscious about the world outside of us.
Mars is discerned to be similar to our planet Earth. It had few elements of nature that earth had and still has. Four billion years ago, theoretically there were oceans, rocks and complex chemistry- all that make ingredients of life. So there’s potential existence in Mars that scientists believe and have evidence for. In the present day Mars is a cold, dry and a frozen desert world, the temperature average is -60 degrees Celsius and presumably the average pressure is 0.6 kPa. This is shockingly over one hundred times less than the Earth’s atmospheric pressure, which further suggests that Mars has a thin atmosphere compared to Earth. Due to the conclusion of the low pressure and low temperature, water is not located (as a liquid form) on the surface of Mars. However there’s hope. Scientist are convinced that we can still be at an advantage, because researchers found reserve permafrost under Mars’ surface, similarly to the permafrost located in Antarctica on Earth, a life may be waiting beyond us. Do you think Mars will help the human race?
I’ve conducted an interview, in regards to this situation, whether Mars is the next hope to life. Jane Lee believes something was there in Mars. “I’ve heard there was life in Mars and scientists are searching for life.” She continues elaborating her view. “I hope that humans can step onto Mars, because I truly believe we’ll be able to start a brand new life all over again. Something that we can benefit from”. Lee further gives her appreciation to everyone in the NASA that are trying to give a new hope to humanity. My other respondent, Bill Jean didn’t disguise his answer. “I’m not too interested, but if researchers do find something than that must be good for us. I guess us humans have so much to catch up, as the world is not what you think it is.” He further argues the problems that are spiralling on earth. “It’d be quite interesting if we had the ability to go to Mars, I think the reality is too problematic on Earth”.
I’m indeed fascinated by the research scientists have worked on and distributed it for the whole world to acknowledge about it. It gives a true reflection on the changes planets are facing in the present day compared to their previous years, like Mars. Let’s be hopeful that Mars can give all of us an opportunity we need if we fail Earth.
