A huge discovery has been made in the realm of Mars exploration, as it has recently been confirmed that the ideal landing zone for the Mars Colony missions will be Valles Marineris! This intriguing landscape on Mars is one of the most promising pieces of land to be colonized not just on Mars, but in the entire solar system! To better understand what makes it such a favorable starting point for human expansion into space, join us as we look at Why Valles Marineris is a Perfect Place to Build a Mars Colony!

Thing is, I'm old. I remember the Mariner missions. I remember Carl Sagan talking about the Viking Lander. Even then, I thought back to my Science Classes and the fact that valleys on Earth are warmer than mountain tops and the air pressure is higher. I was a dumb farm boy and I figured that out. What the hell took NASA so long?
they will settle there only if water is near.
Nice video!
It's interesting to see how far we've come with our Space ventures.
Ten years ago going to Mars was off the table, and now we're literally only a few steps to going there.
Quite an unbelievably fast development, I have to say.
