I've seen first...I hear what you're saying. I've seen first-hand what can be lost by ill-advised excavation and recreation of Bronze Age sites. There are a lot of things we might know, except for some Englishman on the Grand Tour of Europe stealing everything. <br /><br />But what if Mars is just a dead rock? You're arguing to preserve something as an aesthetic entity that can never be enjoyed by anyone, except in an imaginative abstract sense. If we can't go there, it doesn't really matter what's there anymore - we must necessarily imagine it instead of seeing it.<br /><br />I think that the argument "we can do better later" is a dangerous one. If we do nothing because later we might do it better, we never will. The future is always a better time to do anything, isn't it?<br /><br />I don't really think there's a benefit to exploring Mars, or indeed colonizing it. But I can't see the harm that you're talking about here as being significant. <br /><br />Luckily, I don't think Mars is actually in much danger from us. :)Mashugenahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01459788212338670183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31331045.post-39023040695306744402010-06-17T21:58:48.364+12:002010-06-17T21:58:48.364+12:00Here is some elaboration of why I don't think ...Here is some elaboration of why I don't think there is a case to send humans to Mars:<br /><br />To me the purpose of space exploration is to expand the scientific understanding of the universe.<br /><br />I think that unmanned probes do an excellent job of this. They are expendable and do not require life support which makes them much cheaper than astronauts. We get more knowledge for our buck. This is true of exploring anything in space not just Mars.<br /><br />I think it is important that we cause as little impact as possible when we explore. Take only photos, leave only footprints and, in the case of space exploration, some rubbish with limited environmental consequences.<br /><br />One reason for this is so that we can do more exploration later. We are likely to have different questions, different technology and different methodology in the future. I don't want us to change Mars now because there is only one and I want people in the future to be able to investigate it too. Consider some of the well meaning desecration that occurred in the name of 19th century archaeology.)<br /><br />What if there is life (e.g. microbes) on Mars and we change the atmosphere of Mars and the life dies? Even if extinction of alien life is an acceptable outcome (which I do not think is true) is it acceptable to risk losing our chance to investigate it?<br /><br />Sending people increases the impact the probe has on Mars because the probe is bigger and needs a lot more energy, some of which may harvested on Mars in destructive ways (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_atmosphere#Potential_for_use_by_humans)<br /><br />(I am much less concerned about the impact of people changing a few asteroids. Mars is unique in our accessible neighbourhood, there are many, many asteroids.)RUTHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17066700024072725883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31331045.post-88623431328859056222010-06-17T17:01:23.981+12:002010-06-17T17:01:23.981+12:00I'd be interested in your elaboration of these...I'd be interested in your elaboration of these thoughts.
