The Caves of Mars Project was an early 2000s program funded through Phase II by the NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts〔 〕〔 〕 to assess the best place to situate the research and habitation modules that a human mission to Mars would require. The final report was in mid 2004.〔 == Description == Caves and other underground structures, including lava tubes, canyon overhangs, and other Martian cavities would be potentially useful for manned missions, for they would provide considerable shielding from both the elements and intense solar radiation that a Mars mission would expose astronauts to. They might also offer access to minerals, gases, ices, and any subterranean life that the crew of such a mission would probably be searching for.〔 The program also studied designs for inflatable modules and other such structures that would aid the astronauts to build a livable environment for humans and earth creatures.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Caves of Mars Project」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
