Slide 12 - Open vraag

Give two reasons why the writer thinks it could be unsafe to
send people to Mars.
Some reasons why the writer thinks it could be unsafe to send people to Mars are:
* The distance between Mars and Earth, which means there is a delay in communication, and therefore it would be hard for people on Earth to help people on Mars in the event of an emergency.
* On their trip, the people on Mars would have to deal with it themselves.
* We don't know what the effect of prolonged space travel would be on the human body.
