The Mars Society Germany proposed a crewed Mars mission using several launches of a heavy-lift rocket derived from the Ariane 5.

A Mars habitat is a hypothetical place where humans could live on Mars. [2] [3] Mars habitats would have to contend with surface conditions that include almost no oxygen in the air, extreme cold, low pressure, and high radiation. [4] Alternatively, the habitat might be placed underground, which helps solve some problems but creates new ...
NASA is seeking a cheaper, simpler approach to one of its top science priorities in the midst of a budget crunch - retrieving precious soil samples collected on Mars and flying them back to Earth ...
Project Mars: A Technical Tale is the English translation of an unpublished German-language science fiction novel written by German-American rocket physicist Wernher von Braun (1912–1977) in 1949. Von Braun’s original title for the work was Marsprojekt .
Printing 3D habitats for Mars, the frontiers of Alaska and under the sea It’s a natural step for X-Hab 3D’s founders, who first joined forces in 2017 in response to a NASA Centennial Challenge.
In April, Musk, who founded SpaceX in 2002, said the first uncrewed starship to land on Mars would be within five years, with the first people landing on Mars within seven years.
