Living on other
planets!

Earth
Earth is the only planet in our solar system
that can inhabit humans. Every other planet
has something just off what is on earth.
Earths atmosphere is getting thinner
everyday with increasing height. It is the
main component of life on earth.
I think that if we all save power and reduce
our green house gases we will not have to
move to another planet.

What do humans need to live on
another
planet?
No One said that humans couldn’t live on another planet just that there is
no other planets but earth, in our solar system that humans can survive
on.
Humans need the basic elements of life such as Oxygen (at the perfect
pressure), Water, Food, medicine and the right temperature.
Those few things will keep you alive but will not provide you with a
comfortable life. For that you will need, a way to dispose human waste(
high tech toilet) and rubbish, fruit and vegetable gardens (brought from
Earth), water recycling and filtering plants, food dispensers, houses,
and a way to get around. We would also need a way to remove our
dead.
If we were to live on another planet we would have to be vegans or find a
way to transport millions of animals to our new planet. If we did that the
animals would use up heaps of our oxygen and our crops.
There is no way in my life time that humans would move planets.
Space Food
Scientist all over the world are developing
plants that can survive and produce food
in space. This will increase our chances
of surviving on another planet.
Some scientists are even looking at
growing plants without any soil. This
would make living on any planet (even
earth) easier.

Mars
Terrestrial
Humans can not live on mars unless scientists
find a way to stabilise the gravity, thicken the
atmosphere and balance temperatures. Mars
is too cold for humans to survive about -153
degrees Celsius at the poles.
Mars’ atmosphere is nearly all carbon dioxide
so you would need a way of storing oxygen.
After Earth Mars is the planet that is most
suitable for humans to live on.

Saturn
Gas Giant
We cannot live on Saturn because it is a gas giant which
means there is no surface to stand on. You would fall
straight through but by the time you get to the other side
the pressure would kill you.
The air on Saturn is not breathable because it has huge
amounts of methane and ammonia in it which is deadly
to humans.
Weather on Saturn is severe, winds blow at about 1609
kilometres an hour. The temperature on Saturn is -184’C.
Saturn will never inhabit humans.
