  2. Mars habitat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_habitat

    A Mars habitat is a hypothetical place where humans could live on Mars. [2] [3] Mars habitats would have to contend with surface conditions that include almost no oxygen in the air, extreme cold, low pressure, and high radiation. [4] Alternatively, the habitat might be placed underground, which helps solve some problems but creates new ...

  3. Planetary habitability in the Solar System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_habitability_in...

    Planetary habitability in the Solar System is the study that searches the possible existence of past or present extraterrestrial life in those celestial bodies. As exoplanets are too far away and can only be studied by indirect means, the celestial bodies in the Solar System allow for a much more detailed study: direct telescope observation, space probes, rovers and even human spaceflight.

  4. Terraforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terraforming

    An artist's conception shows a terraformed Mars in four stages of development.. Terraforming or terraformation ("Earth-shaping") is the hypothetical process of deliberately modifying the atmosphere, temperature, surface topography or ecology of a planet, moon, or other body to be similar to the environment of Earth to make it habitable for humans to live on.

  5. Colonization of Mars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonization_of_Mars

    The colonization of Mars is the proposed process of establishing permanent human settlements on the planet Mars. [1] Most colonization concepts focus on settling, but colonization is a broader ethical concept, [ 2 ] which international space law has limited, [ 3 ] and national space programs have avoided, [ 4 ] instead focusing on human mission ...

  6. List of potentially habitable exoplanets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_potentially...

    Several other planets, such as Gliese 180 b, also appear to be examples of planets once considered potentially habitable but later found to be interior to the habitable zone. [ 1 ] Similarly, Tau Ceti e was thought to be likely habitable, [ 80 ] but with improved models of the circumstellar habitable zone, as of 2022 PHL does not consider it ...

  7. List of nearest terrestrial exoplanet candidates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nearest...

    Called Proxima b, the planet is 1.3 times the mass of Earth and has an orbital period of roughly 11.2 Earth days. [10] However, Proxima Centauri's classification as a red dwarf casts doubts on the habitability of any exoplanets in its orbit due to low stellar flux, high probability of tidal locking , small circumstellar habitable zones and high ...

    The first Starships to Mars will launch in 2 years when the next Earth-Mars transfer window opens. These will be uncrewed to test the reliability of landing intact on Mars.

  9. Planetary habitability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_habitability

    Planetary habitability is the measure of a planet's or a natural satellite's potential to develop and sustain an environment hospitable to life. [1] Life may be generated directly on a planet or satellite endogenously. Research suggests that life may also be transferred from one body to another, through a hypothetical process known as ...
