Microbes are a good use of food in mars.We can also use hydroponic greenhouses for controlled environmental systems.]]> 2019-02-28 19:34:26 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/336602247 1604131 https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/338543515 A good way to build a habitat is to minimize wastes and use recyclable items for reuse. A good way to build a solid base is using local soil to fill the sturdy sacks in the ground to use not expensive and very sturdy material. Mars does provide us some raw materials. The regolith, the material which covers the surface, could be used to make concrete, and there are cave systems which could be converted into underground habitats to protect the scientists from the radiation, but if we use the regolith to make the we would have to always being wearing hazmat suits or suits that block radiation since basically everything on mars has radiation.]]> 2019-03-06 18:37:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/338543515 1389701 https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339595336 We thought we would make a storage compartment on the rocket and make it two times the size of the rocket that went to the moon, which means it needs to have more power but it'll will hold more fuel to go further. The rocket will need a bigger engine so if we get the best rocket engineers to build a engine big enough to make it all the way to mars.]]> 2019-03-09 19:44:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339595336 1389701 https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339595936 Solar panels would be a good source of energy on mars. The rover that was sent to mars, Opportunity, was on mars for 15 years running on solar panels to charge its battery until a sandstorm covered the solar panels and couldn't work anymore but since were sending humans to mars they can clean the solar panels when they get dirty from the sandstorms.]]> 2019-03-09 19:51:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339595936 1389701 https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339619084  Radiation shielding is based on the principle of attenuation, which is the ability to reduce a wave’s or ray’s effect by blocking or bouncing particles through a barrier material. Lead can effectively attenuate certain kinds of radiation because of its high density and high atomic number, it is effective at stopping gamma rays and x-rays. There are also more elements that block radiation, they include tin, antimony, tungsten, bismuth or other elements.]]> 2019-03-10 01:17:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339619084 1604131 https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339775156 In martian crust, scientists say that it is made up of aluminum, iron, and magnesium. ]]> 2019-03-11 01:18:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/y1ihzbxj0wbb/wish/339775156
