Next Stop: Mars | Vantage Point



Explorers have been searching out new worlds for centuries. And now they’ve set a course for Mars. #AJVantagePoint asks: Are we ready to become a two-planet species? Or should we focus our energy – and money – on taking care of our home planet, Earth?

  1. We have yet learned how to become ‘Earthlings’, so how are we going to learn how to become Martians?
    Unless we figure how to appreciate what we have here, we will never ‘appreciate’ the opportunities that can exist there (Mars).

  2. 😂😂🤣 More Trillions robbed off taxpayers without any explanation being given! Space Exploration is all a distraction & Huge "black hole" (no pun intended) coverup to account for endless amounts money going missing! Put it under a NATO banner & no one askes any questions!!!

  3. First off, by what right are we claiming Mars, or any other planetary body in the Universe as "Earth's" sole property to do as we please in, on or around it? Quite arrogant and assumptive of Earthlings. UFOs exist. EBEs exist. They have a Universal presence. Earthlings do not. Our governments have not been open and honest with humanity about Earth's visitors, contacts, Universal representatives, envoys or agreements made. Our growth is being watched and monitored and use of our resources measured the same way we monitors other countries interests ourselves. The way we've "taken care of Earth" as filthy slumlords doesn't leave a positive influence in the Galaxy. Earthlings are wasteful, dirty, dangerous creatures. Humans shoot at visitors as quickly as we go to war amongst ourselves. Earthlings need to get their "Universal" 💩 together before branching out. The "Others" can already see no good will come to Mars, or any other heavenly bodies touched by humans. Especially if Earthlings can't even take rightful, prideful care of what they have already had possession of for millenniums. Just an 👽 opinion…

  4. Ahh, so now it's about taking pressure off Earth. It seems, life on Mars is then meant for simpletons overcrowding the Earth, while this garden of Eden is for elites only) This looks bad already.

  5. I wonder if the same dust problem exists on Mars as it does on the moon. I have read several articles saying that is far and away the number one problem with colonizing the moon. The stuff is very sharp, VERY clingy (electrostatically) and an all around destructive material that can wreck machines, suits, etc. The suits the astronauts were wearing on the moon were already being heavily compromised by the time they left on the later longer missions, which were still very short.

  6. earth has existed long before humans. she does not need our help, she is capable of taking care of herself. when she gets too hot, volcanoes erupt, as in the past.

    the arrogance of humans will be the destruction of the planet, not c02.

    stop lying to people!

  7. This is just the parasitical nature of human beings destroy one host (Earth Mother) & find another to exploit, pollute for money / corrupt elitist's pleasure or personal gain.

  8. 😅😅😅
    2011: China has been barred from the ISS since 2011, when Congress passed a law prohibiting official American contact with the Chinese space program due to concerns about national security.

    2022 April 27: NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said on Tuesday China continues to display a lack of transparency and willingness to cooperate with the United States in China space station.

  9. It will cost more like several trillion dollars. We would need to send a small village, with shops, medical facilities, spare parts, and living supplies. And we would have to provide redundancy. The whole idea is fatheaded.
    "Take some of the pressure off our … planet." How? Would we send five or six billion people to Mars?
    "Bring a sweater." Cute. Useless, but cute. Compute the heat generation needed before advising "sweater".
    Too many people have been watching too many science fiction movies.
    Let's send machines. They are expendable.

  10. It's not about saving earth consequentially but simply doing and living the basics as our Creator intended.
    Stupendously stupid to even consider colonizing Mars as was the same for the moon in the 80's.
    Aren't ALL the resources to be taken from the naturally self sustaining planet Earth? Duhrrrrrrrrrr

  11. They have never been beyond lower Earth orbit so this analysis is not brilliant like people are saying it's based on the assumption that space travel is not an elaborate hoax which it most definitely is how come they lose the technology to go to the moon that is ridiculous the fact is nobody actually went to the moon

  12. Humanity can never survive until Faster than Light FTL travel and hyperspace travel is invented/discovered. Without warpdrive technology we have nowhere to go.
    And oh yes. I do mean it. Humanity cannot survive without colonizing 10 habitable worlds. I estimate Humanity has 900.000-7.000.000 years. If we had artificial homes on hundreds of domes on uninhabitable worlds and at least 10 habitable planets colonized not counting earth, than Humanity is set to survive 25 million years up to 1 billion. And if Humanity set up thousands of domes on thousands of planets and colonized 100 proper habitable planets. Humanity's extinction can be pushed back from 1 billion years to 30 billion. And 90 billion years if over a million planets were colonized by artificial domes, 1000 habited colonized planets and upwards to 50 fully terraformed planets, the more humanity colonize and expand across space the more we'll survive as a species. Need I bring up this fact, if we colonized even 1 habitable asteroid belt that somehow has atmosphere, but very low gravity, but has flying creatures, and liquid asteroid ponds and flora vegetation and etc or a habitable moon, that still delays our inevitable extinction by a long time. Our destiny is space. Our home is space. And if we can set up FTL travel, our future is the distant places of space.

  13. 1: SpaceX will be spending PRIVATE money to go to mars, not taxes. They will earn that money with Starlink.
    2: Colonizing Mars will NOT take any pressure off of Earth. There's 8 billion people here… a few hundred colonists leaving for Mars is just rounding error on earth.

  14. How can we live many years while raising kids without oxygen in -63 degree Celcius? There is a reason why we live on Earth, not Mars. Why wasting time and resources if we can't even breath properly there? How if all the machines break down? It needs six months to go back to earth. While no oxygen means extinction. It will be better if all the money to go to Mars spent to improve lives here on Earth where oxygen is free and the temperature is suitable to live
