Mars declared unsafe for humans to live as no one can survive for longer than four years
NASA are hoping to land humans on Mars in a matter of years. Space agency has explained that Mars is 'one of the only other places we know where life may have existed in the solar system', so exploring it could help offer insights to the past and future of our own planet.
NASA suggested that technology to take humans to Mars could be available as early as 2030s - but don't start dreaming about life in outer space just yet. Last year, researchers combined studies from the likes of UCLA, MIT, Moscow’s Skolkovo Institute of Science & Technology, GFZ Potsdam to look into potential impacts of life on Mars.
Researchers sought to answer two questions: one focused on the impact of particle radiation and whether it would pose too grave a threat to human life, and the second about whether the timing of a mission to Mars could protect astronauts and the spacecraft from radiation.
