Looks cool though.

At least post a decent resolution.

Except for the trillions of dollars in mineral resources. There's more iron on Mars than there is on Earth.

It really does.

t. Martian

We're coming for you space niggers.

you sound like someone i worked with once.

he seemed like a smart fellow. had notable knowledge of mechanisms and a well formed political ideal.

but that was it. an ideal.
he expected results to come from a source. and if that source didnt yield to the ideal then it wasnt worth pursuing.

but what he couldnt grasp was that sometimes the best results are created not found.

were going to mars.

Ever see the pictures of like factories and glass domes? It's something.

Nice try, Space Shlomo

I agree.
Mars is literally a red herring.
Sci-fi is literally cancer and is the cause of the numale blomosexual plague.

...

alright fine but don't explore the southern icecap, there's nothing there.

>We shouldn't terraform Mars and have a new wave of 21st century settler adventurers establish a new constitutional republic in the name of America

Where the fuck is your imagination, user?

We can put white people on it though

>There's nothing on there
Yet

venus is the actual gem of our solar system other than earth. it's about the same size as earth, and it's easier to take away atmosphere than to add atmosphere in a terraforming situation.

>daily reminder that pursuing new world exploration is pointless and no amount of Spanish raids can change that fact. There's nothing on there.

No you faggot. Besides the technological advancements that stem from pursuing space travel, it's important in more insensible ways. It helps create national pride, gives the people a major goal, has a positive impact on our culture, etc.

It's been far too long since America actually pursued a large scale goal like this.

tldr: BECAUSE IT'S THERE, you flaming faggot.

What if we take the atmosphere from Venus and move some of it to mars.

Two new planets!

Actually, what some people have hypothesized is a possible floating city on Venus.
There is a layer of atmosphere on Venus that is apparently identical to Earth's and would be habitable.
We Cloud City now.

That and it has gravity similar to Earth, and its dense atmosphere actually allows us to easily create floating cloud cities. It'd honestly be more feasible than colonizing Mars, where you have no atmosphere, cold temperatures, no magnetosphere to protect from radiation, shit gravity that will lead to health complications, etc.

I say we go to both, because everything is a stepping stone in the advancement of mankind.

Genetically evolve human immunity.
/thread

It's not identical to earth, but the place in the sky would result in mild temperatures and earthlike atmospheric pressure. The outside atmosphere would still be toxic, but that's nowhere near as big a deal as the issues of pressure/temperature. And the atmosphere could eventually be terraformed over time and replaced with something more suitable.

>daily reminder that Christopher Columbus is a shill and will surely fall off the edge of the earth in a frivolous search for literally nothing across the ocean

Yes there is you dumbass.
This'll be the most expensive touristic spot in the sol system for the next hundred years.
Then we'll have Venus' cloud cities.

We arent gonna haul back iron from mars fucktard

I think we all really wish there was something to this, as much as we all know there simply isn't.

The plan is to use that iron there and in space.
Don't you have schools in the US?

Do you realize how cheap iron is compared to jet fuel?

what is using those resources to build a FOB for further space exploration

And, more importantly, niggers can't follow us to Mars.

Couldn't we use the iron on Mars to build things for space exploration. Just spit ballin here. Why bring it back to earth just use it on location.

OH YEAH
WHAT IS THIS THEN

DRUMPF BTFO

A group of rich people could send their children to Mars to start a new civilisation.

Rich people get pretty bored, yo.

Not to mention it gives us an out.

If we get wiped out by a meteor tomorrow, that's it. Humanity gone, along with everything we ever were and everything we could be.

But if we had space colonies?
We continue on. An extinction event is no longer an extinction event if there are pockets of us thriving across the solar system.
And eventually, it would lead to ark projects to spread our people further across the stars.

God created all.
God told us to multiple.
God bestowed upon us the ability to evolve as a people.
It stands to reason that God wants us to colonize space.
