Default Building a Base on Mars

The best spot to build a base on Mars would be its north pole. Seems
to me its dust storms would not be as bad as at the equator. The north
pole if it has water it would be the material the dome would be made
from. Water is a great building material(ask any Eskimo) and the best
part is its there(hopefully) We can easily get oxygen from water,and
the free energy of hydrogen. The dome would cover the Mars lander,and
could be kept as warm and humid as Florida.Make a nice hot house to grow
soy beans,lima beans,and have a big fish tank(a few million trout eggs
don't take up much room) Trout goes good with soy beans. Think of it as
a Chinese dinner. Bert PS no egg roll,or finger bowls


Bert, my martian geography is not great, but I'd fear the temps at the north
pole would be extreme.
