EUROPE: Mars could be visited by humans in the year 2039 if NASA is able to carry out a mission on a schedule recently announced by the space agency. The announcement was made during the Humans to Mars Summit held on May 5.
Charles Bolden, NASA administrator, is asking the public for assistance in placing people on Mars for the first time in history. The organization is also offering $15,000 in prize money for people who best detail the needs of such a crew. A total of three cash awards will be distributed among the trio of winners.
A Mars colony would not only need to protect the lives of space travelers, but would also need to be constructed with viable technology, from readily accessible materials. However, the space agency is stressing it wants solutions which include technology that could be developed within the next two decades before flight.
