Petrichor 4,640 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 For those of you who don't understand the magnitude of this announcement - this means in our lifetimes we're going to witness humankind go from a single planetary exsistence to a multiplanetary existence! We're colonizing the solar system! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FATCAT 60,888 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Yea, they said the same thing about the moon. It's been 50 years since we first visited, and no dice. I hope this is true, though. This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kvnrp 48,353 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I think it will take at least another 30-50 years after making first contact on Mars to actually colonize it. But it's so amazing to think that we could witness the colonization of f*cking Mars Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Laurent 4,862 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I don't really find it all that exciting that astronughts are going to be sent to live on Mars 🙄 that is, after all, what they train constantly for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatfoxyfeeling 13,401 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 It won't happen with the current technology we have, there are technical hurdles currently unsolved of protecting humans from the radiation levels they would be exposed to in deep space. It's unfortunate because I'd love to be alive to see humankind step foot on Mars. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They send a lot of stuff into space https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Falcon_9_and_Falcon_Heavy_launches#Launch_history They mostly fail on rocket recoveries tho. But they haven't had a "Send a satellite to Saturn" type of launch yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
