Dear MEL
Topic Readers,
UAE seeks to
build human settlement on Mars by 2117
A hundred-year
project. Aiming to achieve in the generations to come, the United Arab Emirates,
UAE, plans to build the first human colony on Mars within 100 years. Though it
doesn’t sound as bold or ambitious as JFK’s commitment made back in 1961 to
send a man on the Moon by the end of the decade, it seems to inspire the
emirates’ students, engineers and scientists of the present and the future to
work for the dream.
But one
question still remains to be answered. Is Mars such an enjoyable and
comfortable place to live on?
Ask *Mark
Whitney if he’d like to go back to the red planet again.
*Mark Whitney is a botanist in a
science fiction novel, The Martian, who
was left on Mars alone, but was later rescued by the crew.
Enjoy reading
and thinking if humans will ever inhabit the neighboring planet.
