Will humans be able to live on Mars?

This question is very likely that many people have asked it. It sounds like something impossible, but the reality is that every time the human being is closer to getting rid of doubts, whether we can live on Mars at some point in our lives or not. What is clear is that it is not an answer that we will receive today, nor tomorrow, perhaps this generation of 1999 and 2000 will not be alive when said movement occurs, but why would it be impossible?

Scientists describe Mars with a great resemblance to Planet Earth, the latest news revealed by NASA is that they found water and the most recent informs us that a human vehicle the “Rover Perseverance” landed. Which captured photos of the surface of this planet. Images that continue to confirm that it looks a lot like Earth. The next move will be to plant plants to see if they resist the surface and atmosphere of Planet Mars. The atmosphere that they say is thinner than Earth’s.

It would be an unforgettable event to be able to live on another Planet, which I still believe is not something impossible, since human beings in some way or another look for a way to manage to create and do new and different things. The real question is why or why are there so many planets that only Planet Earth can be inhabited? If you put it from that perspective, your answer is not logical.

In the same way, the issue of how in such a large galaxy is Earth the only planet with living beings also enters into context? There is still no answer to such a question, but it does not remove the fact that perhaps other species exist. I think it’s something that NASA may have hidden from us. Who even takes away that life is found on Mars? Ask yourself, is it by chance that there is a planet so similar to Earth that it is not possible to inhabit it?
