Human beings will inhabit Mars planet

Book Summary by: Makius    

Original Author: Vida espacial
This abstract was translated from El planeta Marte; vivirán seres humanos
The Mars planet, if they prosper the advances and scientific predictions, can be, “a new home” for the humanity to confirm
itself that there is no life in the red planet, would begin the plans to inhabit it. The details of this crossed space, were given by some reliable information in these days. Scientists of the NASA and the Independent National University of Mexico (UNAM) study the vegetation of the Tip of Orizaba, upper of the country with about 5,750 meters, in search of keys that could facilitate a possible Mars colonization. Sources of the project said to Efe that the Tip of Orizaba, third upper of North America, counts on the particularitity to upper have the forest of the world, to 4,200 meters of height, which attracted the investigators. The altitude of this volcano located in the State of Puebla, its proximity to the equator and its low temperatures causes that the place has analogous conditions at which could get to have Mars sometimes, explained to Efe the Scientist Rafael Navarro González, of the UNAM. The scientist has been working for nine years in this investigation in collaboration with the NASA, and assured that if in the next missions to Mars is confirmed that there is no life in this planet, the project to make artificially of Mars “a new “earth, will become four in fact or five decades it advanced more. “Mars is one of the planets that in the past were looked much like the Earth”, the expert said, who remembered that he makes million years had water and the Oceans. Also the memoriosos will remember that were spoken of the “invasion of the Martians” with their famous “flying plates” and described to the Mars inhabitants like green enanitos, thing that never was reality. One thinks that the life in the Red Planet arose simultaneously to the one from ours. The first step to introduce Mars life, explained the expert, would be to warm up Mars with gas liberation “conservatories” (those that let between the radiation pave in the atmosphere and that does not save the heat, like carbon dioxide), “as we are now doing it in the Earth, but more express and of more efficient form”. The difficulty resides in which Mars is more far from the Sun than the Earth reason why the solar energy that arrives to him is a 40% minor who the one that reaches our planet. In spite of it the scientist maintains that stable and very efficient concentrations “in the Martian atmosphere could be obtained “, adds Navarro González. When increasing the temperature, the congealed water would melt and the scientific earths dweller could begin to introduce bacteria that would obtain with passing of the time to give rise to the first plants and, more ahead, to cause than Mars counted on a breathable and accessible atmosphere for terraqueous inhabitants. Later species of trees in the warmest zones of the planet could be introduced to try to create in that planet “an appearance very similar to the Earth”, said the scientist. In that point it is where a paper would play nails the Tip of Orizaba, to solve “the incognito of what it delimits that the forest can grow to certain height”. “The direct influence so that it does not grow is the temperature”, explained Navarrese, that considers that with a minimum of five degrees certain Mars trees could be seeded. In the top of the Orizaba, an extinct volcano, is a glacier that to inferior heights to 5,000 meters begins to melt, just as is planned happens in Mars. If it is descended in the ground appear the first lichens, bacteria and moss, which could be the following stage in the neighboring planet. Later they appear the first pastizales and in a last stage it is arrived at you edge of a forest them, that is to say, to the possibility in similar conditions to introduce Mars trees. In less than twenty years the first manned mission will go to Mars, which could allow that they began to be applied the knowledge acquired in the Tip of Orizaba and to lodge the possibility of altering the conditions of the RedPlanet as of the 2050. “The man always had and has explorer spirit, to colonize new atmospheres, places and distant earth; now one is to expand to us towards the enormous Earth space, either to us one becomes small or”, he indicated the scientist, that he dreams about making of Mars “a new home” if happened to be “a red, desert and sterile planet to one blue one, with water, and green”. The Ufólogos, surely will feel torn parts of their dreams, because being 1940 and 1960, until sighted Martian landings in rural places of several parts of the world, we have by case, so promoted Roswell file, that today it serves like international tourism for the zone again Mexico in the EE.UU; of the Martians some is no sign, although many doubt that the North American authorities hide information on the matter. As it wants that it is, it is in the last scientific sections to try to take to create the indispensable atmosphere to the red planet, so that it can be lived by alive beings, among them the human beings
