Here is an update that generally fits in this topic ...
It is good to see the collaboration between educational institutions and NASA via their educational support affiliates.

Another aspect of the discovery reported is that the asteroid is near Mars at the time of discovery.
That is another indication that resources that would be helpful for settlement of Mars are moving around the Solar System, and they occasionally come near Mars.

Wow, thanks for the update. As for the collaboration, a very good move I must say.I came across this...
For juliusbarry re #29
Thank you for bringing this topic back to life!
You've launched with an intriguing teaser. Would you be willing to develop your ideas a bit?
To start with, it would be helpful to show a comparison of conditions at McMurdo over an Earth year, compared to conditions at a location you select on Mars for a Mars year.
My guess is your graph will show that conditions at Mars are more severe at every time of the respective year, with the exceptions of the presence of water and the greater power of wind flows.
In other words, I would be surprised that your research shows McMurdo is more severe than Mars, as your opening Post #29 would seem to imply.
If you have not yet visited the My Hacienda topic, please take a quick look. It is designed to work out the requirements for a community able to sustain itself at first (Earth) world levels, whether on Mars, or at any difficult location on Earth.

Alright. Thanks
To turn it into a actual colony, I'm of the opinion that the temperature during the winter has to be put into consideration.
