IS THERE ANYTHING ON EARTH THAT COULD WITHSTAND CONDITIONS ON MARS?
BBC Science Focus
|Summer 2025
Mars is a pretty horrible place for any creature used to life on Earth. The average surface temperature is -63°C (-81°F) and doesn't reach above freezing anywhere except right on the equator, during the summer.
The atmospheric pressure is equivalent to Earth's at an altitude of 35km (almost 115,000ft) - well above the cruising altitude of commercial aircraft. And this thin atmosphere is nearly all carbon dioxide, with just the merest trace of oxygen. Then there are the radiation levels, which are 400 times higher than on Earth, plus the lack of liquid water anywhere, except for occasional, very salty, trickles.

HOW DIFFICULT WOULD IT BE TO FLY THROUGH THE ASTEROID BELT?
In the 1980 film Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Han Solo and friends try to escape pursuing imperial forces by flying through an asteroid field. Droid C-3PO remarks, \"the odds of successfully navigating an asteroid field is approximately 3,720 to 1\". The scene depicts a chaotic, dense field of rocks swirling and spinning through space. This scenario has been played out many times in the cinema.

HOW CAN I BE MORE PERSUASIVE?
Most of us like to think we're rational people. If someone shows us evidence that we're wrong, we'll change our minds, right? Well, not necessarily, because it's not always that simple. Being wrong feels uncomfortable and sometimes threatening. That's why changing someone's mind is often much harder than it seems.
