Robots 3D printing cities out of martian dust. Amazing.
@Some Thing just because something has been exposed to radiation doesnt mean its radioactive..
@@OnlyTheQuack do is not?
GOING TO MARS WILL MAKE US THINK ABOUT ELON MUSK
Fascinating. I enjoyed this.
We would build a better and more efficient world.
We are not thinking of being efficient. On Earth we think of how much bigger that tower is than that one. We want things to be as grand as possible. But who's to say "grand" and "efficient" can't go hand in hand.?
This guy needs to collaborate with Musk!
Yeah these 2 cocks in the same room...wot a laugh...lol
I thought people have already determined that earth pic was manipulated. When you adjust the contrast on the photo a square box forms around earth clearly showing it was added in.
SHHHH... They're still asleep
Probably using the same methods and advanced thinking required to analyze all evidence and conclude that the Earth is flat.
@@hotdognr12323 Well just because someone believes something is true does not necessarily mean they, or that thought, are somehow advanced. To me as I look at the stars (most every night) it would appear that we are spinning. But I simply do not posses enough first hand information to make a definitive assumption - or at the very least decide that what I believe is true is really true. One thing I personally would feel foolish not believing in is that most of what I was taught may not have actually been true. I do have the right to think critically but I do not have the right to declare that what I think is true is actually true, let alone advanced.
I'd love to know why we made it to the moon 50+ years ago and then, after years of excitement and innovation, we just stopped. Why was that? Did we really stop, or did it just fade out of the global spotlight? I've always wondered this. Anyone got an idea?
Going to space is expensive, very expensive. By the time US reached the moon, USSR was giving up from the Space race, because they couldn't afford. With the Space Race won, the US congress decided to give up on it's future plans for the space involving the Moon and Mars, because 1) Too expensive. 2) Nothing to win from a economical or political standpoint. 3) All the immediate needs could be fulfilled by investing in the colonization of LEO (Low Earth Orbit) 4) People are emotional trainwrecks and politicians depend on them to make decisions. When space disasters happened, the nation's mood would fall (Hurting their chances of reelection) and the support for space exploration would go down as well, so stopping the riskier adventures, like the Moon and Mars was also a way to save the support for Space exploration. The investments in LEO was justified because 1) It was cheaper than go to the Moon or Mars. 2) It had economical return, with sat communication. 3) It had military, political return, with GPS, climate sats. 4) The microgravity environment was the same of the Moon, so scientific research that needed it could be done there.
Now, we're coming back because 1) Private companies, like SpaceX and Blue Origin, are leading the way towards it, not the government. 2) Space offers important economic rewards, like the prospect of global Internet to be sold to airlines, cargo ships and rural parts of the world (Think Starlink); Mining, this one being out of reach, and space tourism. 3) Today we've an advanced set of robots AND AI to do most of the job for us, something that didn't exist in the 60s or 70s, so space exploration becomes a much safer business. 4) China is a rising threat against the US-EU-Japan-Asian Tigers-ANZAC-Soon India alliance and one of the fields they are investing heavily is space exploration. If the alliance don't act to preserve their lead, there's a great chance China will be the one to lead the future of Space exploration.

How about using fibers/plastics made from plants? Hemp can do the job
You can only carry limited amounts to Mars and plants (initially) need lots of water and nutrients AND survive the environment. Martian dust is the best option for scale
Let's fix this planet before trashing it, ruining a generation, and then move on
I most certainly agree and think saving the Earth is most important but we can do both
Human are virus...They first exhaust the resources, multiply and move to another area..Like a plague
-Agent Smith
ok but the engineering discoveries that can be made about how to sustain life in an environment when limited can help us use limited resources here. There were so many discoveries made during the Apollo missions, such as computers and calculators.
Yes! Let’s stop India and China chucking plastic into the sea, eating everything that has meat on it, and overbreeding.
@@aliray1165 and USA responsible for 25% climate change
Dry ice? Was what he had to say really that dull? The odds of people living on Mars are slimmer by the year.
nilpoint you won’t be saying that when the first few rockets launch.
I hope one day we can use robots like the ones in this video to create sustainable housing for people on earth who are less fortunate
We will for sure, but that'll mean that much less people with jobs, unfortunately. So, when we do, I hope we've simultaneously solved the approaching job crisis, right along with the meaningful life crisis.
Martian economics will be an elective in colleges💪🎭
Yet, his concept and building plans didn't get the first place award... ?
If only people could stop yelling at each other on TWITTER, maybe then we could go to mars
* *Eddie Bravo has entered the chat* *
Traducción al español, por favor. Gracias.
aprende inglés.
Im afraid that if or when we live on mars, we might kill it just like we are killing earth :/
we are creating life on mars, not killing it. You cant kill something without life.
Just look at the state of it. Get yourself together.
Who is watching in 2050 from Mars?
And I love the invention of fidget spinners!
Shut it nimrod
😂😂😂
Fix your grammar first.
@@cowgivesmilk1233 tok
@The Rockall Times do you know* English?
First thing to learn is how to print a wheel on Mars as there isn't any round or tree to chop from
I've got a brilliant , albeit not an original idea . Are you ready ????????????????? Let's fix this place first .
If one can ever go to Mars in the first place........
@The Rockall Times - I guess we can then scartch those tumors all the way back to Earth.
Is an unavoidable perspective of the human kind but unavoidably changing the level of development of everything including the level of reasoning.
Going to Mars???
You can’t even go to a place without causing deviation! And you’re going to Mars?
Not too much to devastate up there
ocm506
Just the minds of those who accept the possibility of reaching there...
India
Great ideas but sadly it would not happen on earth. Arrogance etc from various governments (China for one) and greed.
*Freedom is the power to say no!... this becomes reality with the Freedom Dividend :)... After watching this, please TH-cam... Freedom Dividend Playlist*
We Indians did it in our first try🇮🇳 Proud to be an Indian
Indians went to mars?
India sent Mangalyaan to Mars
Next year Vyomonauts will go there they are Indian astronauts
Yup
Yes in 2013, in its first attempt & a very low cost .
That pic of earth has been proven to be faked.
We live on a fake earth?! Nooooooooo
@@aliray1165 lol
When people have mastered living together on Earth we can think about going to other planets. It is worth noting that Mars is not the place to go as true earth history shows these being brought domination, control and suppression of the human race after they has almost destroyed their planet.
Humans mastering living together will never happen unless theres an unearthly threat or universal threat that is attacking the human race.
You’re about 50 years too late. We’ve already been to the moon. Sorry about that.
Bud don’t be silly we’re not going to any Mars
Not with your attitude
Sure ain’t cant even get back to the moon i call bs.
We can buy Mars bar . Be positive
karthikeyan M.V that doesn’t make it true positive or not
Your intention is good but lacking engineering and Space Science, next time consult, cooperate and coordinate with professionals on many fields involved. You get powerful cold sandstorms, with lots of heavy grains, harsh environment, you need to make it habitable but really hard and bumpy to avoid anything grabbing on to it, like beetles
Noboday, nothing and no g-host or spirit is going to MARS, if I don't allow it!
Forgot all thoughts to destroy the next planet! First go and learn the MULTIVERSE by fixing the points together!
Don't judge me for my words, without be judged back!
Ok poca hontas and how do you expect to stop these people from going to Mars?
Fake
It's all fake people.
Nick j agreed
No space, asstronots, travel to the moon 😂😂 cmon TED
Space is not what we been told
We can't even get back to the moon and they think we can get to Mars?? Keep dreaming.
Never because of the radiation
Circular economies? My guess is socialism
Circular economies have nothing to do with capitalism or socialism; they emphasize efficiency and waste management. In fact, a circular economy would potentially _increase_ profits in a capitalist economy. Don't be a paranoid dunderhead.
We can't even get to the moon, let alone Mars. Wakey wakey it's all fakey
And destroy all other planets, never ever!
That goes against the plan of WE-ATHER!
we first need to start by accepting the flat earth theory as a genuine possibility
Hehe
Wake the f up we ve been to mars for a long time now
he is boring although sounds knowledgeable
Hellboy doh!
