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 of sending humans to Mars would require solving an array of problems the Moon missions did not have to face.
One problem is that a round-trip to Mars and back is likely to take at least two years. The trip to the Moon lasted only a few days, and it was easy to bring enough supplies of food, water, and oxygen; but the cargo capacity of space vehicles is too limited to put on board the food, water, and oxygen required by a crew for a period of two years. Without those essentials, though, a Mars mission is impossible.
A second problem is that astronauts on the Mars mission would be in the zero-gravity environment of space for many months at a time. Spending a long time in the zero-gravity environment has negative effects on the human body, such as decreased muscle mass and lower bone density. Over the course of a two-year mission, the effects would be so severe, they would make it impossible for humans to make the trip without experiencing grave medical problems.
Finally, astronauts on a mission to Mars would be exposed to dangerous levels of space radiation, much of which comes in the form of charged particles emitted by the Sun. Earth's magnetic field, which normally protects us from dangerous solar radiation, would not be able to protect a spaceship traveling in interplanetary space. Constructing a shield that would protect the whole spaceship from space radiation is at present impossible because it would add too much weight to the ship.
The reading and lecture both talk about the possibility of sending humans to Mars. The passage states that the process of sending a human to the space required to solve some sort of problems. The lecturer casts doubt on the claim made in the article.
First, the written text claims that a round trip to Mars and back takes at least two years. In addition, without some kinds of essential factors, the mission is impossible. In contrast, the orator opposes saying that food, water, and oxygen are the necessary elements for the mission but Hydroponics is more important rather than water. Besides, by using this factor, astronomers could recycle wastewater and having fresh air.
Second, from the author's point of view, astronauts facing zero gravity that has negative on the human body such as bone density and muscle mass. The monologue rebuts the claiming that zero gravity does not have many negative effects, but the astronauts should do some regular exercises to provide Calcium and muscle mass.
Lastly, the passage advocates the levels of space radiation exposed by astronauts. Moreover, it states that providing a shield to protect from radiation could not be effective because of the weight. Conversely, the audio lesson challenges that the solar radiation will not be at danger level all the time. Besides, spaceships should be equipped with a special shield surrounded by the shielded areas.
