How Mars Colonisation Will Change Life and Business On Earth

The Earthly Benefits Of Martian

Here we are talking about the celestial world. The opportunities are abundant and our tiny brains can barely comprehend it all.

In the past Russia, China and the United States have made continued attempts to find an alternate civilisation or at least expand ours…. But with the coming of genius individuals and bad boy billionaires, the dream of colonializing mars seems to be possible in the near future.

I Can Sum Up Projects Like Mars Colonisation As —

“ The Biggest adventure human race has ever been on ”

Now countries are open to amalgamation with private vendors, cross-border projects, and inter-government operations.

Such joint forces and collective efforts are unseen in history and hence the results are expected to be positive.

The Space Influencers

Any technological advancements in space are bound to have their residue on earth. New observations, inventions and findings can be applied for the betterment of people.

These are some of the previous pioneering of our space scientists that were initially made for galactic research but eventually made their way into daily human life and created novel fields of career, occupations and unicorns that become billion dollars industries —

• Camera phones
• Scratch resistant lenses
• Cat scanning technology
• Artificial Limbs
• Baby Formula
• Athletic Shoes
• Memory Foam … and many more

How Mars Exploration Helps Humanity and New Enterprises?

So here are some of the opportunities the Mars expeditions Will bring to earth that are bound to make our lives better and create numerous fresh fields of research and business.

Where you can try your entrepreneurs’ luck with humanitarian satisfaction.

Space X: StarShip, Starlink Technology

Our regular commercial aircraft travel in the atmosphere of the earth and this form of commute is subject to weather conditions and long hours as compared to rocket ships.

If at one point space travel is aced and made economical and commercial. The travelling within the earth will barter too. These new air crafts will fly outside the earth’s atmosphere and will reduce travel time exponentially.

As Musk himself said — “China to UAS in 40 minutes”

Blue origins by Jeff Bezos and Virgin Galactic by Richard Branson are also working on achieving similar results.

Developing New Technologies

Space programs have for the longest time been the harbinger of path-breaking technologies and innovation.

Numerous sophisticated tools and technologies like GPS, medical diagnostic tools, wireless communication technologies, technical textiles, synthetic food and meat, advanced solar cells and many more innovations owe at least part of their creation to the various space programs.

Through outer space programs, organisations have found ways to communicate across wide distances, develop precise navigational tools, store, transmit, and process large amounts of data, deal with health issues through digital imaging and telemedicine, and develop collaborative tools that connect scientists present in different countries.

The space programs have mastered the art of miniaturisation of scientific equipment and helped engineers figure out how to control rovers from millions of miles away.

Going to Mars requires similar innovations. Researchers have now found their way around how to search for life on the rocky ancient remnants of the red planet, drill for rock samples and collect them, take high-resolution videos and stream them directly to research stations on earth, facilitating hard and soft landing take off from another planet.

The future is bright with expectations of large-scale meaningful payoffs that mars exploration will bring to mankind by incentivising innovation and advancing science.

Space Resource Mining

Photosynthesis of Our Own Oxygen

It is a known fact that Celestial bodies in and around our solar system are composed of elements and minerals that are similar in composition to those that are found on Earth.

Therefore many of such heavenly bodies, asteroids and planets could be potentially rich in rare metals and minerals. Finding out ways to sustainably harvest such materials, collecting their samples and bringing them back safely to Earth represents a possible benefit of space exploration.

This could provide new leads and unlock potential avenues for manufacturing, product design, and resource distribution. One brilliant example of this can be seen in the PERSEVERANCE mission of NASA to mars which could help in resource utilisation through insights gained with its Mars Oxygen Experiment (MOXIE) equipment that aids in the conversion of Martian atmosphere gases into oxygen.

If MOXIE works as planned, it would facilitate the first ever human mission to mars and also help humans live and work on the red planet safely.

I mean we could create and harvest Oxygen, how awesome is that? And its unimaginable benefits, applications, and ventures.

Boost to Space Tourism

It is most likely that in near future wealthy tourists will take trips around the Earth, visit space stations, orbit the Moon, and perhaps even take trips around Mars. They can experience the majestic views of the celestial bodies, experience zero gravity and weightlessness, and witness the stars from outside the earth’s atmosphere.

The Mars space missions will aid in space tourism by building on the engineering expertise in the areas of space docking, launching and aborting mid-way, reentry of space modules and by providing additional experience about the impact of space travel on the human body.

By knowing about the effects of low gravity conditions and weightlessness on the human body we will be able to come up with new improved by-products of such research that will enhance human performance on such missions and will aid in successful future space travel. Just as international travel has helped people to experience various perspectives and personalities, in the same way, the advent of space tourism will widen human horizons. It will motivate people across different countries to forge partnerships that will help in protecting our beloved planet earth from various challenges and collaborate to solve global problems.

Helps in Fight Against Climate Change

Mars has been the object of curiosity for several thousand years. Observations by scientists suggest that mars may have had a vast ocean covering its northern hemisphere, it is also believed to be once covered in a thick atmosphere capable of maintaining water.

During the Martian evolution, the planet went through a dramatic transformation, and a world that was once rather Earth-like became the dusty, dry husk we witness today.

As of today if a single living thing, even a microorganism is found on Mars, we can study its biology and resistance.

And that tiny entity can change the entirety of Earth.

……….It has the potential to prepare and prevent the earth and its residents from meeting the same fate as Mars.

Scientific exploration on mars can help scientists gather key insights into how climate change can have momentous effects on the planets. Through studies, we can also know whether or not life existed on planet mars and if it still exists on it today.

So the more we learn and gather information about mars the better position will we be in to decipher the mystery of the evolution of life and at the same time, we will also be better equipped to tackle the vagaries of climate change.

Once Large Transfers Happen, Earth Can Recover

While we work on making Mars habitable, we will simultaneously help the earth heal as well. The technological findings and advancements will aid us in understanding and solving earthly issues.

If and when any mass relocations of the population happen from earth to mars this will supplement in lifting some load off earth’s chest and will further mend our ecological balance and give time and opportunity for ozone to heal and resources to replenish.

And since billionaires will be the first to leave earth you can fill the empty vacancy and throne yourself as the new — Gates, Rocker-fellers, Musk, Bloomberg, Buffet or Cambridges [ if you are into that stuff ;) ].

Shattering Myths and Illusions!

We humans have assumed that life was unique only to the planet Earth and not present anywhere else in the universe. We have built elaborate theories and philosophies around the centrality of this assumption.

Future space missions particularly to mars will challenge these assumptions, and confront all the myths surrounding the Origins of life. Discovering evidence of ancient microbial life on Mars would lead scientists to conclude that life likely is ubiquitous around the universe and not limited to Earth.

Thus bringing a paradigm shift in theories about human existence and our place in the universe.

Inspire Generations To Come

“Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it, we go nowhere.”

Thousands of years ago people seldom travelled beyond their place of birth but today we travel all over the planet. Those people from 10,000 years ago would be astounded by how far and wide we travel today. Similarly, people of future years will look back on us and think the same thing.

Today’s space missions will certainly inspire generations to come and will lay a foundation for them to build upon and expand the travel horizons of our universe.

Summing Up —

One can question the ethical grounds or ecological impacts of space conquest but the hard truth is that governments and individuals with immense money, power and resources have made it their mission to mine, mint and conquer the unknown world.

You may like it or not, You might think it’s possible or not….. an endless debate.

But it’s happening, And it’s happening now.

What’s important is that we have to be aware and intrigued by the new.

Have an open-mindedness to embrace the unknown or else you’ll be left out of the biggest human conquest and advancements.
