Space Farming On A Mars Colony! NASA recently was able to grow a plant utilizing lunar solar, and even more recently China’s space rover made a surprising water discovery at a Mars landing site… so let’s dive into how farming could work on a Mars colony.

  2. Farmers ploughed all the potatoes into pits because no one was buy chips at takeaway during covid
    food shortage Nope just wasteful humans who wont give away $millions of crops are waste because of markets and over produced
    cant potatoes or crops be used to make vodka or methanol spirits for fuel or so

  3. Those shipping containers would be flat packed and not made of metal. I'd hazard a guess that 20-40+ could be packed into a single Starship. Tbh if they took the shape of the payload bay and redesigned it, that number could be substantially higher

  4. I really hope this type of thing never happens, Mars Colonies are fucking stupid, The Cost, Psychological Effects, Physical Effects, Travel Time, Communications Time, Practical Problems and fucking terraforming outweigh the “benefits” of getting to Mars, What’s the point of getting to Mars? There’s no abundant amount of resources etc. Exploration? Doing that on the moon is WAY better; There’s a lot more important and research-based resources there, Such as Lunar Regolith, Helium-3, Lunar Ice Water etc. The Moon can also serve as a base for future deeper operations such as going to Jupiter or Saturn’s Moon or even Mars. The Moon can also serve as a really good observatory complex, safe from atmospheric interference. Mars Colony is a dumb idea and I pray it never happens.

  5. I agree using the soil is unlikely and not a short term answer, however I wonder if a long term, several decade or even century plan could be used. Something that would slowly turn a soil from infertile and unusable to something fertile over the period of the project.

  6. great video, am disabled, but I see myself going to Mars, and it should be that easy to figure it out for people like me, just saying 😉 vote for me to go to Mars…

  7. Methinks that experimenting with both processed-simulated Moon and Martian soil and with contained hydroponic containers in an environment such as that of Antarctica would be the way to go. It could be that both will be of value for any future settlements on these two.

  8. It will never happen. Not in our life times, our children’s or our children’s children. It’s a dead world and we are committing enormous amounts of financial resources/technology for a planet that would be better served closer to home. If we want to cultivate a dead world, we should focus on the moon…which hasn’t had any focus since it fell out of popularity both politically and financially. Follow the money. Mars is the “click thing” right now because it’s what our civilization is enamored with at the moment. The scientific/financial will exists to that end. Mars, because Mars gets you money from tax payers and government. Wasteful spending for the purpose of pop culture misinformation. Mars is a dead world and always will be.

  9. Correct me if I'm wrong? 🙄
    The burn field entering Mars is less due to less greenhouse. 🤓 gases moisture excetera.🧐
    If "A" Ice plant with near ?😲
    Could one not mathematically🧮 iceberg "A" asteroid.🧊🌐
    On "A" non-habit part other part of that planet.

  10. Regarding potatoes, I'm sure a little Tesla mini tug will help them move it. Solar charged of course. But the fling Starship farm is interesting. Fly the dirt in, grow the kale or whatever. Ship it down the elevator. And the farmers can bask in the Sun at night. Or day. I love a Mars farmers tan.

  11. There is only one small problem. Plants use CO2 and breathe out oxygen. First of all, they need a source of CO2, human meat sacks would be sufficient. Second of all, plants release oxygen. There is actually quite a significant change in pressure due to this 'gas' requirements. It was a big problem in Biosphere 2. So much so they had to install a huge artificial 'lung' to deal with these changes in pressure. Obviously biosphere was much bigger than any of our spaceships, also it had trees. But any enclosed, pressurised environment must take this into account.

  12. The biomass of the substrate (soil) matters the most. Millions, if not billions, of microscopic lifeforms, per cubic meter, are an integral part of fertile soil for growing plants on Earth.

  13. Farming will most likely need to be done hydroponically at first. Converting Mars soil into something useful will take time. We would need to bring secondary additives such as micro organisms/ worms for the soil. Composting over a long period of time would be required to enrich the soil enough to be viable for plant growth.

  14. Probably hydroponics not soil, as we'll have more control over what nutrients are delivered, and their ratio, as well as regulating pH, packing in a high density, and avoiding radiation by growing them underground.

  15. If we can upgrade humanity before we venture forth, we won't need to eat, sleep, drink or do anything else we currently have to. Combine Neuro Link and Nano mites. We would never stop upgrading and adapting to everything. Always becoming better.
