Scientists are considering the possibility of sending humans to Mars in the coming decades Although there have been successful manned missions to the Moon in the 1960s and 1970s Mars is 150 times further away from Earth than the Moon is Thus the project o

The reading material mentions some problems that people will face during the mission of sending humans to Mars. While the lecturer disagrees with the reading material on several points.
The author states that a round-trip to Mars will take at least 2 years, and the cargo capacity isn't sufficient to carry enough food, water, and oxygen at once. The lecturer disagrees with this opinion by saying that astronauts now can use a technique called hydroponic, which allows them to cultivate plants in water in the spaceship. Plants will recycle wastewater and release oxygen for the spaceship.
Secondly, the reading argues that living in a zero-gravity environment for months will bring some negative impacts on astronauts. While this statement cannot hold water. The professor says until now, humans have established several space stations, and there are some astronauts already learned how to use techniques to manage these negative impacts. For example, they can do regular exercise to prevent the muscle mass from decreasing and use other methods to keep bone density.
Thirdly, the reading proposes that astronauts will be exposed to dangerous levels of space radiation during the mission to Mars. And it is impossible to install a shield for the spaceship because it is too heavy. The teacher denies this by pointing out that space radiation isn't at a dangerous level all the time. Only when the sun is active, the level of radiation is dangerous. Besides, we can construct some monitors to keep an eye on the level of radiation. Adding a small shield is also possible for a spaceship. Astronauts can stay in this small shield when the radiation level is dangerous and in normal space when the level is safe.
