We can live on other planets. Part II

We can live on other planets. Part II




Installing a base on the moon of Phobos is the plan of some, but the problem with Phobos is that it is very close to Mars. In fact, it is suspected that it may have internal cracks and that it is already on the verge of starting to disintegrate because theft is going to happen. end up impacting Mars, it is estimated that in a few million years but it will end up impacting because it is very close, there is also the theory that before impact it may actually disintegrate and form a gigantic ring of dust around Mars.


One of the advantages of Mars is that it has water, but it is also frozen. The European space agency had discovered possible lakes of liquid water under the polar cap of Mars and it is possible that aquifers of liquid water exist in areas with volcanic activity and therefore with heat that may have kept that water in a liquid state.


Finding hot springs on Mars would be a treasure, but I believe that if the volcanic activity on Mars was very intense in the past, there must still be some vestige left somewhere.




The interior of Mars is hot, Mars has a hot and molten core but different from that of the Earth, it is a discovery that was made recently, the core of Mars is different from that of the Earth, until now it was thought to be the same as Mars. It would be a version like the earth, but smaller and therefore the structure would be similar, only that since it is smaller, it will have cooled more quickly over time.


Because the Earth was larger, it would have conserved its interior heat better, but Tuesday would have cooled more quickly, the crust of Mars would be thicker and that would be the fundamental differences regarding the interior of Mars, but the findings made by the insight that is basically a seismometer that NASA has placed on Mars.


The core of Mars is very different from that of the Earth, but very different, to begin with the core is completely molten while on Earth we have a solid inner core that is floating in a liquid outer core and also floats at a different speed, It rotates at a different speed than the rest of the planet rotates and this is believed to be the engine that causes us to have a magnetic field.




On Mars we do not have a magnetic field, the core is completely molten, everything is liquid, and the composition is also different, on Earth the core, both solid and molten, is basically iron and nickel plus some other metals, but basically iron and nickel; on Mars it is iron and a lot of sulfur, there is also carbon and oxygen, it is a different composition, but the important thing is that it is molten and retains heat and that heat can reach the surface, and this is proven by the fact that in the past Mars has had enormous volcanism, it has the largest volcanoes in the solar system.


The moon provides us with stability in terms of the axis, but it is not so fundamental in terms of transforming a planet, on Earth it is good for us because it creates that stability for us because otherwise the axis would collapse, but it is a process of dozens or hundreds of thousands of years, which on the scale of a civilization is more than acceptable, you could transform Mars to modify its core, which is important.


Keep going…
