Could Windmills actually power a colony on Mars?



The game “Surviving Mars” offers you with several options to use in order to power your colony, including Wind Power; but Windmills shouldn’t work due to Mars’ thin atmosphere…. right?

  1. I still think there is plenty to cover for a full video if people are interested in that!
    There are several problems with using larger windmills, intermittency and maintenance problems, and higher mass windmills will be even harder to turn to name a few; but this whole concept proved to be much more plausible than you'd normally think; Pretty cool huh

  2. Personally I think we won't ever overcome the physical limitations to thrive on any other planet. The human body is too specialized for living on earth. And even here we struggle to live in certain regions. Regions that in someways resemble the conditions on Mars.
