The planet Mars is once again at the center of an astonishing discovery that will have a huge impact for all of humanity, and this in the context in which scientists are looking for solutions for creating colonies there. More precisely, the research done so far on the planet Mars reveals the fact that not only humans will not last long on the surface of the cosmic body, but the same is true for the planets that will not be able to be cultivated there, at least not very easily.
The planet Mars does not have a magnetic field, and this means that its surface is constantly hit by cosmic gamma radiation, which makes it impossible to sustain life for long periods of time. Here we are talking both about the survival of people on the surface of the planet Mars, as well as about the cultivation of vegetables, fruits, or whatever else is necessary for humanity to live there, the only viable solution being underground constructions, away from radiation.
Planet Mars: AMAZING Discovery announced to Mankind
The planet Mars could not have any kind of fruits or vegetables cultivated, even if humanity built special greenhouses in which they would be sheltered from the cosmic winds, or the meteorological phenomena on the planet. As long as the radiation hits the planet Mars constantly, there is no other solution for sustaining life there apart from moving underground so that humanity can sustain life safely, but also grow food.
"Researchers ran an experiment in which they planted garden cress and rye and measured the crop yield of a group irradiated with Martian levels of gamma radiation versus those grown in a 'normal' environment with only Earth-level radiation. Crops in the irradiated group were stunted, with brown leaves, and resulted in a significantly reduced yield after 28 days of growth.”
The planet Mars registers gamma radiation levels on its surface that are up to 17 times higher than those recorded on Earth, and this makes it practically impossible to grow plants, vegetables, fruits. Scientists are looking for solutions to these problems, but also how the astronauts who will arrive on the planet Mars in the future could live there protected from gamma radiation, and only after solutions are found will the first missions to the planet take place.
The planet Mars is currently in everyone's attention because of the many problems that must be solved before humanity gets there, so it remains to be seen what will be revealed to us.
