Land men/women on Mars

Asked by JustinCase2 in Math & Science Questions

Tags: mars, land, does, nasa

Hi all,

Pardon my ignorance..

Apart from the obvious technological and psycholgical hurdles involved (what is it about 3-4 months just to get there?) how does NASA plan to get them off after? Unlike the moon, Mars has an atmosphere, not to mention high winds etc. And a much higher gravity.

I suppose they could sorta dump them, with appropriate insulation and so forth onto the planet using those ball things. But where do they stay/sleep while they're on there?

They can't set up a rocket sight, right? Or is there technology available to make it feasible?

I guess my question my main question is how to get them off.

Just curious if anyone knows what NASA's initial plans have been thus far.

Best to all,
