Reproducing Earth Systems on Mars

This presentation explores the critical elements required to establish human life on Mars through the Mars One mission. Key topics include the recycling of matter, energy sources, and essential needs for sustainability: food, water, shelter, and air. We will delve into the importance of H2O, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus in supporting plant growth and maintaining ecological balance in a Martian habitat. Understanding these systems is vital for planning successful missions to colonize Mars and ensuring human survival in extraterrestrial environments.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Reproducing Earth Systems on Mars

  2. Going to Mars The Mars One Mission

  3. Essential Questions • What is required for matter to be recycled? • What is the source of virtually all energy on Earth?

  4. H2O, N, C, P • Water is everywhere • Nitrogen and Phosphorus are important to growing plants • Carbon is the basic building block of all living things on Earth

  5. What you must have on Mars… • Food • (supply and grow) • Water • (clean and need to clean) • Shelter • (all activities must be indoors) • Air • (oxygen supply and re-supply) • Decomposers • (matter has to move through the cycle)

  6. Put it to use… • Based on the information in the last slide, where do you expect to need… • H2O • N • C • P in your Mars Habitat?

  7. Upcoming Due Dates • Matter Cycles HW • Links found on wiki (boycescience.wikispaces.com) • Habitat Presentation • Tuesday August 27 & Wednesday August 28 • EQQ #1 • Thursday August 29
