You may think getting and living on mars is dream come true. thinks again.

First mars has a thin atmosphere so mars has a very weak agains meteorites and asteroids.

Second mars has a weak magnetic field, unlike earth being protected by its huge magnetic field. mars has a very small and weak one.
 having a magnetic field protects us from solar flares and solar radiation sun produces. and when mars got hit by a solar radiation even with
the most advance protection agains radiation we have it will be useless resulting to instant death.

Third is the gravity, sure mars has a weak gravitational force but be warned. because of it your body will try and adopt to the new enviroment.
your bones will weaken then your body will start to change. i know it sounds like a science fiction but our body adopt to new inviroments.

im sure you`ll learn a lot but learning what your going to face outside earth and go the unknown and deathtrap place i`ll be happy staying here.
hearing they`re progress. and if they`re expedition is successful and manage to return to earth or not they`ll be known as a heroes.

on the science industry and to those who are eager to learn about this universe. It is scary but to them its worth a risk.
