Never. Mars is a shit hole we should be focusing on titan/europa.

>>3610223
I think we should focus on nearby asteroids and orbital factories, foundries and habitats.

40.

Agreed 100%; OP is a faggot.

20 years, maybe? ESA and the Ruskies are teaming up to send a mission.

Depends.

How long USA can stay together.

>>3610220
Like 50 years after the US gets it's space program back.

>>3610733
>it's

No apostrophe necessary

>>3610743
It is if the writer in question is referring to a noun, i.e.: his "US" part.

>>3610743
>>3610743
in the case of "the US gets it's," it was indeed necessary.

>>3610733
>implying the USA will ever have a space program again

>>3610761
No. it's = it is

..after the US gets it is space...

Makes no sense.

Also, humans on Mars? lololol

a human already did what a martian sunset...what do you think that picture you posted is? stupid.

>>3610220
Is that mars? I thought the sky was pink.

2030-2050 is my guess. Russia probably.

>>3610793

Right now. Or do yo0u mean in person?

>>3610808
when it's possessive it's its. it's a simple concept. its concept is simple

>>3610808
It's = it is. It's /= possessive.

i think we should be able to grow up on our planet before we decide to grow up on another.

If the space-age countries of the world worked together (or travel to Mars suddenly became super lucrative for private companies), maybe before 2050. But probably not. Mars is sorta far, you see.

Stay classing, /sci/. Sage for dipshit there.

mfw ppl are saying 2030 to 2050 but aren't even old enough to remember the 90's.

2070 imho, and it might not be americans who do it

>>3610850
if we sent people that weren't greedy bastards, knew the sciences well, how to make mars habitable within a century, brought no religion or money everything would seemingly turn out well.

>>3610853
Link works fine. You're stupid.

>>3610866
>but aren't even old enough to remember the 90's.

i remember the 90's quite well actually. although nothing of significance happened, i still remember my childhood and what was going on throughout the world as if it happened last week.

>>3610866
I was the one who said 2030-2050. I also said Russia.
I was born 1992. I'm not sure what difference that makes.

So you claim my date is wrong based on the assumption that I do not remember the 90s. Why 2070? I feel like you are just picking a random year without knowing anything about other country's space programs.

Made this awhile back. Happy for a chance to post it.

100 Years, Russian, Chinese or someone else. But don't worry, by then Russia and China will be speaking English with American accents

>>3610220
the epicanthic folds and IQ of the chinese may be ideally suited for that habitat. One thing is for sure, no american will ever view mars with the current leadership in washington

\thread

10-20 years.

>>3611150
Awesome work. I would also encourage all /sci/borgs to support research into computer science, especially AI and robotics. After all, it wasn't a human that snapped that shot.

>>3611150

NASA is scam. A means for shuttle contractors, contractor companies, and NASA center bureaucrats to milk the common will of the American people for a space program. They are conceited, arrogant, and are aided by corrupt legislators who seek to violate fair contracting standards to lock in decades long projects that reward and keep rewarding the status quo.

They take advantage of you blind support, your wannabe space religious fervor. Space advocacy does not need blind support. It is the reason that the road since Apollo has been hundreds of billions spent on white collar welfare and uncompeted contracts to locked in vendors, rather than footsteps on other worlds, and the infrastructure built necessary to transform those footsteps into a stampede.

>>3611202
>especially
That should read "as well as." Sorry.

>>3611205
Calm down. He can fix that by changing the tagline to "Support Space Exploration."

>>3611211

It's a sore subject for me. I am a grizzled veteran of the internet space war of the late zeros, a war that mankind is losing. Give me NASA's human spaceflight budget and I can put you on Mars. It's not as hard as you think. A hypergolic fuel depot at strategic points in space: L2, high mars orbit, maybe others. A flock of mass produced ion tugs shuttling fuel to those depots. High flight rate commercial launch procurement. Modular space habs using chemical propulsion to shuttle astros between the strategic nodes. Inflatable heats shields for descent. This is hardware we can build now. NASA leaches sold you out.

>>3611280

No, you don't shuttle fuel to depots, thats the main problem they have. Fuel depots need to produce their own fuel. The only fuel that should be shipped to a depot is Uranium or Thorium

>>3611802

Fuel depots are prepositioned stockpiles of propellant so that you can fill up your tanks along the way. Solar electric propulsion has a better isp than chemical, and has been already demonstrated in science probes and some comsat models, and so we can access the efficiency of SEP to preposition fuel supplies along the path to Mars. Since most of the mass of chemical exploration ships is propellant, prepositioning propellant in orbit allows you to launch those vehicles dry, and fill them in orbit, which reduces the necessary launch requirements to that which is presently available to purchase on the launch vehicle market from commercial vendors.

Whatever you are going on about is crazy talk from another nut the space field attracts like flies.

I say under 25 years.

Lrn2 astronomy faggot.

>>3610269
As long as people keep making babies at the rate they currently are, the world will not be habitable for long.

>>3613402
> nothing ever changes except population, which only grows ever

true

I predict that in coming years, all will be at war with each other for food.

The world will turn into chaos and after that chaos, and the billions of losses of the population, we will then make the decision we should make right now. LIMIT laws
