Should we live on Mars

Have you ever wanted to live somewhere new? Well you can live on Mars very soon but youll need to know the pros and the cons. NASA states that in 2033 there will be around 9 billion people on Earth. They think that Earth will have so many people it wont be able to support life anymore. NASA has stated that around 2020 they can send people to mars to settle a new home for humanity. NASA wants to send people to Mars because they think it can save room on Earth, help build new technologies, and allow us to search for extra terrestrial life.

The price to send people to Mars would be around $1 trillion. Would it be worth it to send people to Mars. According to Justin O'Niell "Then again, some of the technologies developed for space travel could help here on Earth too." This shows that NASA has helped people on Earth with  technologies they made. According to Jessica Orwig "Even though the cost is high humanity can not risk not going to Mars to explore." This shows that even if the cost is high its to hard to resist not going. There is so much humanity needs to learn about Mars that could later help Eart. On Earth there is debt and diseases that the money for the trip could be used to help Earth. However according to Mars One sending men to Mars can help make new technologies and help jumpstart a new world for humanitty. Money is a big problem for everything but it could be worth the money to send people to Mars. 

Disease is a big problem on Earth but what about Mars. Could going to Mars end humanity. According to Justin O'Niell "Humans would have no natural immunities to these germs." This states that humans have no natural immunities to germs on Mars. According to Justin O'Niell "Along with the exteme conditions on Mars,there's another, tinier risk germs." This states that there could be germs on Mars that are to risky but NASA thinks it could be nonexistante or it might be helpful. Diesiese is also s great risk on Earth but humanity has grown and built immunities to stop it.  Who knows what bacteria could be living on Mars. It could be dangerous and wipe humanity out. However on Earth scientist have cured some disease and bacteria. Plus the bacteria could help humanity. Yes disease is a major problem in society but there are cures.

Have you ever wanted to live on a planet other than Earth, there are things youll need to learn first.  NASA wants to send people to Mars because they think it can save room on Earth, help build new technologies, and allow us to search for extra terrestrial life. There are many things our in space but we are just one of many.
