One thing about Mars, in exploring space. We could have a point for the mnext step on this side of the astetoid field between Mars and Jupiter, where we could take the polar flights to ‘pole vault’ that field. Possibly, we could inhabit the LaGrange Point between Earth and Mars.
But, if you think ‘Mars is hell’, which other planet would you suggest?
“But, if you think ‘Mars is hell’, which other planet would you suggest?”
There’s no good candidate. Mars is just the least worst candidate. It’s like asking “well, which Democrat would you prefer for President?”
Eleutheria5, you explain it to him.
I think it’s gonna be a long, long time.
Forget about inhabiting any other planet. Europa might be inhabitable, but everything else is a pipe dream. But forget it. Build solar energy collection plants in outer space, and download it wirelessly, per Anton Tessla’s theorem. The Chinese are hard at work at that, and they will not be very generous, should they have the high ground. They could not only monopolize this source of power, but block anyone else from accessing it. Or, we could grow lettuce underground on Mars.
LaGrange point between Earth and Mars?
Explanation please? The Earth and Mars are not co-orbiting bodies.
