Imagine living in a house that gets super cold at night and has no air to breathe, that’s like what it would be like on Mars. We need special machines called life support systems to keep the air warm, clean, and full of oxygen so we can live there. Right now, we don’t have enough of these systems or the right tools to build a city on Mars yet.
Examples
- A Martian dust storm can make the sky look completely dark and cover your whole habitat.
