About the resupply missions in "The Martian".
if we cut the travel time to mars by 90%, the consuables are now 90% less.
since we dont have the $$ for hhumans to go to mars right now. were better off building vasmir, design a mars orbital station, design a mars lander station, basically design the infrastructure we will need. I believe attempting to stop terrorism will kill any humans explore mars programs for the forseable future. however we could send the parts for a mars base buried under mars regolith by unmanned dozers, etc etc, while vasmir is tested. since having quick travel within our solar system can open not just mars to exploration and running a vasmir full out, could it get us to another solar system? |

Sure you get faster, but the costs are much higher. since we dont have the $$ for hhumans to go to mars right now. were better off building vasmir, design a mars orbital station, design a mars lander station, basically design the infrastructure we will need. I believe attempting to stop terrorism will kill any humans explore mars programs for the forseable future. It's amazing we got to the moon during the Cold War and Vietnam war. I mean this country is simply incapable of doing multiple things at once. however we could send the parts for a mars base buried under mars regolith by unmanned dozers, etc etc, while vasmir is tested. Or do that while we're preparing for a standard Hoffman style orbit. since having quick travel within our solar system can open not just mars to exploration So will fairy dust. and running a vasmir full out, could it get us to another solar system? Bob, seriously, do the ****ing math. Just think about it. -- Greg D. Moore http://greenmountainsoftware.wordpress.com/ CEO QuiCR: Quick, Crowdsourced Responses. http://www.quicr.net |
