Concept for a Mars base, with ice home, pressurized rover, and Mars suits, 2016. The idea of sending humans to Mars has been the subject of aerospace engineering and scientific studies since the late 1940s as part of the broader exploration of Mars. [1] Long-term proposals have included sending settlers and terraforming the planet.
Mars Direct is a proposal for a human mission to Mars which purports to be both cost-effective and possible with current technology. It was originally detailed in a research paper by Martin Marietta engineers Robert Zubrin and David Baker in 1990, and later expanded upon in Zubrin's 1996 book The Case for Mars .
SpaceX Mars colonization program (colloquially also referred to as Occupy Mars) [1] is a planned objective of the company SpaceX and particularly of its founder Elon Musk to colonize Mars. The main element of this ambition is the plan to establish a self-sustained large scale settlement and colony on Mars, claiming self-determination under ...
Elon Musk set out SpaceX's timeline for getting humanity to Mars this week. He said SpaceX plans to send five Starship rockets to Mars in 2026, with crewed missions following two to four years later.
Mars Ascent Vehicle for six people from DRA5. The NASA Mars Design Reference Mission ("DRM") refer to a series of NASA conceptual design studies of the missions to send humans to Mars. [1] [2] The related term, Design Reference Architecture (DRA), refers to the entire sequences of missions and supporting infrastructure.
The new law allots the space agency $19.5 billion for the 2018 fiscal year and adds a new objective of sending humans to Mars. President Trump signs bill authorizing NASA funding, Mars exploration ...
NASA Design Reference Mission 3.0 was a NASA study for a human space mission to the planet Mars in the 1990s. It was a plan for a human exploration architecture for Mars, and was released in 1998 as an addendum to the early design plans released in 1994. The plan is for a series of multiple launches to send various space transpiration, surface ...
It wouldn't be great for sending humans to Mars, but it could make sending future rovers much more affordable for NASA and other agency. But a couple of mathematicians have figured out how to ...
