Are they talking about the "snowflake" immune system or "real working people" immune system?

Make sure everyone has plenty of soil-based organisms. They build the immune system from the gut. Best brand I’ve found so far is Garden of Life Primal Defense.

Humans are optimized for life on Earth. Expecting the organism to work property off Earth is foolish. The body was not made for space. It was made for Earth.

Colonizing other planets is immoral, because the people-to-be-born are forced to live in a hostile environment, and they were not given the choice.

Grandma always said, ‘You’ll eat a bushel for dirt before you die!’

So, they’d better start eating Mars dirt as soon as they get there. ;)

Puny humans!

Do not attempt to travel to Mars!

You will catch a cold!

Or we will blast you out of space!

Whichever comes first.

The Martians

Space travel does not necessarily mean weightlessness. There is a simple way to create artificial gravity: spin the ship. If the ship is too small, connect two halves of it to a tether and spin that. Mars itself has about a third the gravity of Earth. The primary danger of living there is radiation.

It’s not so much “being in space”, but prolonged weightlessness. For long periods in space, we’re going to need to simulate gravity via centrifuges.

We will become a multi planet species. Don’t let the naysayers kid you.

Heck, you can achieve much the same by living in (on?) Antarctica.

IIRC, Mars has a lot of chromium in its dust. That should kill off a lot of nasty critters.

OTOH, pieces of probes sent to the Moon still had revivable Earth bacteria on them after spending a few years on the lunar surface, baked by the Sun during the waxing and waning, and frozen the rest of the time, bombarded by the solar wind, etc.

Really?

Travel to the Moon is Deep Space?

Besides, a large space vehicle set spinning will create a sensory gravity (acceleration) at the periphery.

Why Bother? What’s Mars got that we don’t have?

Mars ain’t the kind of place to raise your kids, in fact it’s cold as hell.

Old news - H.G. Wells knew this when he wrote The War of the Worlds (1898) and the aliens failed in their invasion due to an infection by microbes unique to the Earth.

Billions of years of evolution

The Religion of Evolution once again is brought into the picture.

It takes far more faith to believe in a process of evolution unaided by God that somehow beats all the mathematics of probability and somehow comes up with this intricate world we live in, than it does to believe in a Benevolent Heavenly Creator God.

The answer to the problem of weightlessness is illustrated by this image of NASA's version of a spaceship, equipped with a warp drive that would allow faster-than-light travel by bending the space around it, making distances shorter. NASA just don't just believe a real life warp drive is theoretically possible; they've already started the work to create such a project. Google "Eagleworks."

The rings would simulate Earth's gravity by rotating to produce centrifugal force. With the effects of gravity working, the problems of weightlessness would be overcome. Operational crews would rotate shifts from the living quarters to the inner operational structure to prevent too much time in weightlessness.

Won’t matter when warp drive is perfected!

What part of planet Earth is “interstellar?”

SciFi crapola!

1. Go to the moon
2. Develop a manufacturing base on the moon
3. Launch manufactured materials into orbit around the moon which is much easier since the moon has a much smaller gravitational well
4. Build huge well insulated ships from these manufactured materials.
5. Cruise easily and safely to Mars in these well insulated ships.

Or better yet, stop wasting huge amounts of money trying to launch fragile human beings into space and instead launch thousands of increasingly advanced probes throughout our solar system to gather much more information in much less time with much less money.

I know quite a bit about space medicine but I never knew anything about the weakened immune systems nor that going to the moon ruined the health of the men who went there.
