Scientists are considering the possibility of sending humans to Mars in the coming decades. Although there have been successful manned missions to the Moon in the 1960s and 1970s, Mars is 150 times further away from Earth than the Moon is. Thus the project of sending humans to Mars would require solving an array of problems the Moon missions did not have to face.

One problem is that a round-trip to Mars and back is likely to take at least two years. The trip to the Moon lasted only a few days, and it was easy to bring enough supplies of food, water, and oxygen; but the cargo capacity of space vehicles is too limited to put on board the food, water, and oxygen required by a crew for a period of two years. Without those essentials, though, a Mars mission is impossible.

A second problem is that astronauts on the Mars mission would be in the zero-gravity environment of space for many months at a time. Spending a long time in the zero-gravity environment has negative effects on the human body, such as decreased muscle mass and lower bone density. Over the course of a two-year mission, the effects would be so severe, they would make it impossible for humans to make the trip without experiencing grave medical problems.

Finally, astronauts on a mission to Mars would be exposed to dangerous levels of space radiation, much of which comes in the form of charged particles emitted by the Sun. Earth's magnetic field, which normally protects us from dangerous solar radiation, would not be able to protect a spaceship traveling in interplanetary space. Constructing a shield that would protect the whole spaceship from space radiation is at present impossible because it would add too much weight to the ship.

Both the reading passage and the lecture discuss the posibility of sucssecful mission to Mars, like the Moon trip. While the reading brings three problems for this trip, the professor finds them unconvincing and knows the trip is challenging but there are some solutions for the problems.

First, the writer asserts that the Mars trip may take two years. Limmiting space of the cargo, it's can't be possible to carry the necessit of the trip like food, water, and etc. Still, the lecturer says that the astronauts can use hider ponic technique in which they can grow plants by using little source of water. Then they can have foods. Also, the plants can absorb CO2 and release Oxygen so the astronomers can breath freshly air.

Second, the author declares that the long trip expose the astronauts to zero gravity for month that will be harmful for their bodies. On the other hand, the professor explains that asronauts used to be in such condition when they are in the orbits around Earth. Besides, they can use some drugs to be healthy in their trip.

Finally, the writer believes that astronauts susecpteble to be hurt from Sun charged radiation. In contrast, The lectrurer says that Sun's charged particle emission is predictable. So they can be in shelter to gaurd themselves.
