so let’s go piece by piece one-way mission with people who would just we
mission with people who would just we
mission with people who would just we agree to go one way and he sends
agree to go one way and he sends
agree to go one way and he sends supplies in advance there’s going to set
supplies in advance there’s going to set
supplies in advance there’s going to set up hab modules I’ve got an image of what
up hab modules I’ve got an image of what
up hab modules I’ve got an image of what his have modules would look like I’m on
his have modules would look like I’m on
his have modules would look like I’m on Mars I think we can put it up on the
Mars I think we can put it up on the
Mars I think we can put it up on the screen let’s check it out that seems
screen let’s check it out that seems
screen let’s check it out that seems like a really fun place to live so it’s
like a really fun place to live so it’s
like a really fun place to live so it’s like 2,000 square feet for four to four
like 2,000 square feet for four to four
like 2,000 square feet for four to four people I think it’s like I guess a
people I think it’s like I guess a
people I think it’s like I guess a regular sized house almost in the
regular sized house almost in the
regular sized house almost in the suburbs yeah yeah exactly okay forever
suburbs yeah yeah exactly okay forever
suburbs yeah yeah exactly okay forever okay Reza right well until you build
okay Reza right well until you build
okay Reza right well until you build another one of those so I asked Bess
another one of those so I asked Bess
another one of those so I asked Bess what are his plans for actually making
what are his plans for actually making
what are his plans for actually making this happen yeah let’s check it out a
this happen yeah let’s check it out a
this happen yeah let’s check it out a very important benefit of the permanent
very important benefit of the permanent
very important benefit of the permanent settlement aspect is that the size of
settlement aspect is that the size of
settlement aspect is that the size of the of the hardware you need to land is
the of the hardware you need to land is
the of the hardware you need to land is only slightly bigger than such such
only slightly bigger than such such
only slightly bigger than such such systems as the Curiosity rover so we are
systems as the Curiosity rover so we are
systems as the Curiosity rover so we are building on a on a payload mass of
building on a on a payload mass of
building on a on a payload mass of roughly 3,000 kilos of useful cargo to
roughly 3,000 kilos of useful cargo to
roughly 3,000 kilos of useful cargo to deserve so excluding the the landing
deserve so excluding the the landing
deserve so excluding the the landing system itself so 3,000 kilos s that’s a
system itself so 3,000 kilos s that’s a
system itself so 3,000 kilos s that’s a that’s a few people plus food and drink
that’s a few people plus food and drink
that’s a few people plus food and drink exactly n and the Curiosity rover was
exactly n and the Curiosity rover was
exactly n and the Curiosity rover was only 900 kilos but it was landing at
only 900 kilos but it was landing at
only 900 kilos but it was landing at about 2 kilometers altitudes above the
about 2 kilometers altitudes above the
about 2 kilometers altitudes above the Martian zero and we will be landing at
Martian zero and we will be landing at
Martian zero and we will be landing at about minus four to make sure that we
about minus four to make sure that we
about minus four to make sure that we have as much as possible benefit of the
have as much as possible benefit of the
have as much as possible benefit of the atmosphere as much as possible time to
atmosphere as much as possible time to
atmosphere as much as possible time to slow down okay so what you’re saying is
slow down okay so what you’re saying is
slow down okay so what you’re saying is I didn’t know this in fact that the
I didn’t know this in fact that the
I didn’t know this in fact that the elevation where they landed curiosity
elevation where they landed curiosity
elevation where they landed curiosity the the air the density of the air was
the the air the density of the air was
the the air the density of the air was relatively thin correct uh compared with
relatively thin correct uh compared with
relatively thin correct uh compared with lower level lower areas since if you go
lower level lower areas since if you go
lower level lower areas since if you go lower you can you can bring more stuff
lower you can you can bring more stuff
lower you can you can bring more stuff you have you can use more air to support
you have you can use more air to support
you have you can use more air to support your landing correct you have you lift
your landing correct you have you lift
your landing correct you have you lift as you descend exactly okay and
as you descend exactly okay and
as you descend exactly okay and therefore bring more stuff bring more
therefore bring more stuff bring more
therefore bring more stuff bring more stuff which is very important because
stuff which is very important because
stuff which is very important because every kilo you sent to Mars is very
every kilo you sent to Mars is very
every kilo you sent to Mars is very expensive so you can maximize what you
expensive so you can maximize what you
expensive so you can maximize what you can bring so finding a place in a low
can bring so finding a place in a low
can bring so finding a place in a low elevation in the right latitude for for
elevation in the right latitude for for
elevation in the right latitude for for solar and water so as far north as
solar and water so as far north as
solar and water so as far north as possible for what about as far south as
possible for what about as far south as
possible for what about as far south as poss
poss
poss of course for the Sun you got you got
of course for the Sun you got you got
of course for the Sun you got you got Mars in your in your office and I don’t
Mars in your in your office and I don’t
Mars in your in your office and I don’t well you’re not getting this so so
well you’re not getting this so so
well you’re not getting this so so you’re thinking of landing in a place
you’re thinking of landing in a place
you’re thinking of landing in a place not too close to the poles it may be too
not too close to the poles it may be too
not too close to the poles it may be too cold and not enough sunlight correct a
cold and not enough sunlight correct a
cold and not enough sunlight correct a closer to the equator but not on the
closer to the equator but not on the
closer to the equator but not on the equator because you think there might
equator because you think there might
equator because you think there might not be were there or less water yeah
not be were there or less water yeah
not be were there or less water yeah there’s a lot of research going on
there’s a lot of research going on
there’s a lot of research going on that’s at the moment and we think this
that’s at the moment and we think this
that’s at the moment and we think this the best place is probably between 40
the best place is probably between 40
the best place is probably between 40 and 45 degrees north latitude that’s
and 45 degrees north latitude that’s
and 45 degrees north latitude that’s where New York City is we’re 41 degrees
where New York City is we’re 41 degrees
where New York City is we’re 41 degrees north latitude so your day will be very
north latitude so your day will be very
north latitude so your day will be very comparable to the day in New York City
comparable to the day in New York City
comparable to the day in New York City sign me up
