Hey , fellow Earth ling ! * ad just s s ung lass es * \n Ah , the age - old question : why do we need to go to Mars ?

Here are some reasons why we should start thinking about establish ing a human settlement on Mars : \n 1 . ** D ivers ifying our planet ary e cos ystem ** : Earth is getting a bit too crow ded , if you know what I mean . By establish ing a human settlement on Mars , we can create a new , sust ain able e cos ystem that can help us better understand the universe and its potential for supporting life . \n 2 . ** Back up plan for human ity ** : Let ' s face it , fol ks , the Earth is a beautiful planet , but it ' s also a frag ile one . By establish ing a human settlement on Mars , we can create a safety net for human ity in case something cat ast roph ic happens on Earth . Think of it as a " Plan et B " for human ity ! \n 3 . ** Ad van cing scientific knowledge ** : Mars is a tre asure tro ve of scientific discover ies waiting to happen !
