No One Is Going To Mars and Here's Why Not:

Mars is approximately 142 million miles from Earth.

Traveling to Mars and returning to Earth would take about two years, de minimus - not months, but years:

*approximately 6 months to get there;

*another year waiting on Mars to return to a suitable return launch position;

*another six months returning to Earth.

Anyone landing on Mars would have to remain on Mars for about a year before anyone could return to Earth.

A round trip to Mars from Earth typically takes around 26 months (two years and two months) because this is the time frame when Earth and Mars are aligned in their orbits, allowing for the most efficient travel time between the two planets; essentially, a "launch window" occurs every 26 months.

Key points about the 26-month Mars travel window:

• Alignment:

  This period is when Earth and Mars are closest in their orbital paths, minimizing the travel distance and fuel needed for the journey.

• Launch planning:

  Space agencies plan missions to Mars to coincide with these launch windows every 26 months.

Let's suppose one could shorten the travel time to and from Mars - you still have to wait on Mars for a year before returning to Earth.

The fact is NASA is fully aware that NASA nor anyone else has ever solved the insurmountable problem of debilitating human atrophy due to prolonged exposure to weightlessness.

Consequently, the idea and claim of years and years of human colonization of Mars - or even the Moon for that matter - does not comport with reality and what we know about prolonged exposure to microgravity and interstellar radiation.

The fact is most astronauts who return to Earth after having spent at least six months in microgravity onboard the ISS, ARE UNABLE TO EXIT the capsule under their own power and must be removed by personnel utilizing gurneys to transfer and transport the debilitated astronauts to their medical examinations and treatment destinations.

That is not a theory, but a well-documented, videotaped fact.

This website exists, inter alia, to provide you with medical WHITE PAPERS that conclusively prove the serious and harmful debilitating effects on the human body, due to prolonged exposure to weightlessness and interstellar radiation.

Another primary purpose of this website is to educate and encourage journalists and reporters to confront NASA and Elon Musk's claims of near future human colonization of the Moon and Mars, with NASA medical facts regarding human exposure to weightlessness and interstellar radiation.

I wish some reporter would ask Elon Musk:

Why are you claiming that you are sending human beings to Mars by 2028, while NASA Administrator Bill Nelson specifically and has repeatedly stated that NASA will not be putting astronauts on Mars until the 2040s? (long after former Sen. and NASA astronaut Bill Nelson will be eulogized)

Since when did you solve the insurmountable problem of serious, debilitating harm to the human body due to prolonged exposure to weightlessness and interstellar radiation?

Have you read National Institute of Health assessments of the serious, debilitating damage to the human body caused by prolonged exposure to weightlessness and radiation?

When will Elon Musk and NASA solve the insurmountable problem of the harmful damage prolonged exposure to microgravity brings?
