It is difficult to predict exactly when humans will land on Mars, as it depends on a number of factors, including technological advancements, funding, and political will. Several space agencies and private companies around the world have announced plans to ...
Going to Mars and living there is a lot more complicated than in sci-fi movies, although we might learn a thing or two from Matt Damon’s character from ‘The Martian’ movie. Scientists need as much information about the Red Planet’s ...
