  • Pack for a day trip to mars!

    Question.

    What would a person need to spend a few hours on mars and live to tell about it?
    No spacesuits available. Basically is there any commercial(arctic, scuba, military, camping or etc) gear that makes walking on mars possible without a spacesuit/ship. Habitats can be considered if the average person can purchase it.

    What can make a nigga wanna loose all faith in/Anything that he can't feel through his chest wit sensation

      Basic artic gear and an oxygen supply would be all I can think of. Oh, and try to get dropped off at the equator during the summer.

          Then you die. I don't think we have any other type of "clothing" that would suitably insulate us against the extreme cold of Mars. You also need a self-contained air supply, as the amount of CO2 is toxic and would immediately kill you.

          After death you'd freeze and dehydrate, like an Andean mummy, and slowly the windstorms would scour your bones clean.

            cheg, in the suumer Mars isn't *THAT* cold at the equator, anything that'd keep you alive in the Artic should be OK.

              Surface temperature (mean) -55°C (-67°F)
              Surface temperature (equat. summer day) 27°C (80°F)
              Surface temperature (polar winter night) -133°C (-207°F)

              quite clement really

                No moon boots available. Would a wet suit or dry suit be any help? How about a gas mask that filters out CO2?

                  still wouldn't be enough oxygen in the atmosphere, but the 'no moon boots' thing isn't a big problem, divers weights would be plenty good enough.

                    What about the suits? Why do they need diver weights?

                      You could just about cope if well wrapped up in -55 for a very short period of time, but as soon as that cold hits your body you will start to freeze quickly...

                        The gravity would be able a third that of the Earth, perhaps a little more, but without weights muscle wastage would be a problem after a time, though for a single day it's irrelevant.

                          Yeah, but people go on holiday in the summer so 27 should be okay, were only on a day trip remember.

                          Pax, the divers weights are so you could feel the same gravitational pull as you would on earth.
