You have invested in space missions, so you have right to know, what is going on, so here is what a spaceship can look like in general, I don’t know where you invested, in dreams, in time, or in real companies, but here are some realistic possible things.
— Spaceships, how much metal, how many windows, what it would be like, any simulations ?
— Imagine 100 people going on a manned mission planned for say in year 2029.
— How can it be? A huge rocket, made of steel or made of bricks, or wood, with reasons?
— How many people will get full seating, or would it be chaired just like chair trains/airplanes?
— How much oxygen would be needed in this huge spaceship?
— Internet says it may take 5–10 months to reach Mars.
— Internet says it may take few days to reach Moon. What is difference between Moon and Mars in terms of developing life there.
— Can we develop life on the Moon instead? Can we have a Moon mission before the Mars mission? Why not a Moon mission as it is just few days flight ?
Why Moon Mission?
— As Mars mission is a big mission, the Moon is near, and simulations can be done on Earth to Moon spaceships.
— Back to question, How much food needed for 100 people going to Mars in spaceship?
— This seem realistic, so we need to prepare charts.
— How much water needed to be taken in spaceship going to Mars in this decade ?
— What about other kitchen stuffs?
Who can tell exact date of timing for Mars flight?
— Well, it depends on size of spaceship and readiness.
Ok. So, what about food, oxygen and water after we reach on Mars?
— Well, that needs to be brought from Earth as there won’t be food on Mars.
So, how many months food and water we need to take to Mars? This is apart form food and water taken in the 5–10 month travel in the spaceship.
— Well, it depends on the mission to Mars, and how long the mission is.
Ok, so the spaceship would come back to Earth, was it a picnic
— No, it was not a picnic, it was a scientific mission
Are people not supposed to stay on Mars after that?
— The spaceship pilots can tell this.
Is it not an automated mission, why pilots?
— Pilots or in charge
So can we have flights to Moon rather than Mars, to and fro flights?
— We need to ask the companies engaged in this work
What about fuel on Mars, how would people live without fuel on new planet?
— Solar Energy, some drilling, may be some gasses found under crust of Mars or Moon.
Would people drill on Mars/Moon
— Maybe they can be trained before we go to Mars and Moon. Moon drilling would be interesting as its near Earth.
Internet on Mars/Moon?
Well,
So, what about Earth losing weight?
— That happens if spaceships are metallic and huge in number. Sending one spaceship on and off, it depends, how many spaceships, how much water, oxygen are send. It needs to be computed how many spaceships are safe to be send out of Earth.
So what are the plans they have
— Well, to settle on another plant, start with mining for metals, fuels, just like iron age? Or steel revolution…
