to take about I take out all the orbital mechanics or physics or mathematics I
mechanics or physics or mathematics I
mechanics or physics or mathematics I would just say stuff a bunch of
would just say stuff a bunch of
would just say stuff a bunch of astronauts in a capsule and propel it to
astronauts in a capsule and propel it to
astronauts in a capsule and propel it to Mars when the time is right but we all
Mars when the time is right but we all
Mars when the time is right but we all know that’s not how it works
know that’s not how it works
know that’s not how it works or is it well if you think about it
or is it well if you think about it
or is it well if you think about it vacuum is very it doesn’t have any
vacuum is very it doesn’t have any
vacuum is very it doesn’t have any resistance if you put anything in a
resistance if you put anything in a
resistance if you put anything in a vacuum and accelerate it towards a
vacuum and accelerate it towards a
vacuum and accelerate it towards a target it’s gonna keep going there’s
target it’s gonna keep going there’s
target it’s gonna keep going there’s nothing to stop it
nothing to stop it
nothing to stop it so the propulsion power or the power
so the propulsion power or the power
so the propulsion power or the power required to accelerate this object from
required to accelerate this object from
required to accelerate this object from one place to another isn’t the problem
one place to another isn’t the problem
one place to another isn’t the problem the problem is how are we going to make
the problem is how are we going to make
the problem is how are we going to make the people who are going to Mars survive
the people who are going to Mars survive
the people who are going to Mars survive the journey to Mars because although
the journey to Mars because although
the journey to Mars because although space might look like this twinkly
space might look like this twinkly
space might look like this twinkly paradise that everybody loves we all
paradise that everybody loves we all
paradise that everybody loves we all know that is one of the most hostile and
know that is one of the most hostile and
know that is one of the most hostile and volatile environments known to man all
volatile environments known to man all
volatile environments known to man all right it is there’s so many things that
right it is there’s so many things that
right it is there’s so many things that are so harmful to the humans that are
are so harmful to the humans that are
are so harmful to the humans that are going on certain trips of long distance
going on certain trips of long distance
going on certain trips of long distance trips from Earth to different planets

meteorites there’s solar flares there’s all sorts of problems and the distance
all sorts of problems and the distance
all sorts of problems and the distance between Earth and Mars is approximately
between Earth and Mars is approximately
between Earth and Mars is approximately 225 million kilometres and unprecedented
225 million kilometres and unprecedented
225 million kilometres and unprecedented distance that our astronauts would have
distance that our astronauts would have
distance that our astronauts would have to travel and to get there an average
to travel and to get there an average
to travel and to get there an average spacecraft would take about seven months
spacecraft would take about seven months
spacecraft would take about seven months or about 200 days and that is a long
or about 200 days and that is a long
or about 200 days and that is a long time to be battle

space so before we even go there there’s
space so before we even go there there’s two more factors that we need to
two more factors that we need to
two more factors that we need to consider out of the many that other

consider out of the many that other scientists are considering but there’s
scientists are considering but there’s
scientists are considering but there’s two more factors that we need to
two more factors that we need to
two more factors that we need to consider about how do we make the people
consider about how do we make the people
consider about how do we make the people who are going to Mars
who are going to Mars
who are going to Mars stay alive on their journey to Mars so
stay alive on their journey to Mars so
stay alive on their journey to Mars so number one is cosmic radiation so cosmic

DNA and cause cancer so how do we not
DNA and cause cancer so how do we not get affected by it here on earth well
get affected by it here on earth well
get affected by it here on earth well it’s because of our amazing
