Well I know that for me, the space station never gets me to watch or care. and i know that a mars station could get as dull as that if not for new things to discover. I know that the rovers now dont get me to look every day now that theyre slowing down( why one tool wasnt a dust blower NASA only knows, they told me to costly???) and what holds my interest is seeing something new. Zubin likes to think of mars trip as early newworld. YES to travel along with Lewis and Clark would be more interesting than just setting around the mars base watching the veggies grow. (you guys follow Mars soeity mars bases much??? not me ZZZZ) I worry about reason for going to mars, to look for life doesnt really do it for me. If we find life we should leave. Only real reason is to go to mars is to try to save man kind should a astroid hit earth. And of course to explore and understand, which that info needs to be fed back to the funders if the money is to flow. so really in large part its not about the science and it is about a show for us. Nasa has been playing the science card to long, like saying we need a Space station to study humans in weightlessness BULL CRAP learned long ago human dont like weightlessness spin that space ship lol. So look at that mars Lewis and Clark idea again all early stations dont have to move but would get better ratings if some do, say travel up Olympus mons to the crater almost there tune in next week or across that wonderful valley
SHOW TIME LOL
IM new here and have not had time to read any topics SORRY
but after watching the success of the mars rovers. I had what Ibelieve is an important idea. dont sit in one place Explore!!!! move around and see new things
I believe that the biggest danger to Mars exploring is pubic bordom. Once we get to Mars I believe it is important to have a way of moving the station to see new places while they are there. A mars wagon train. I love Mars direct but feel this is one very important element that needs to be added to keep the public interested with whats going on there. And moving everything is safer than driving far in a mars rover that could break down. Perhaps the rover should be the engine that pulls the hab and return vehicle.
Please send feed back and if you agree spread the idea around. I think it could mean the differece of a long successful Mars colony and another apollo program.
