Mars can be terraformed into an Earth-like paradise. By reestablishing a magnetic field to protect Mars, thickening the atmosphere, removing perchlorates from the soil, creating an ozone layer, and adjusting the atmosphere, we can terraform the red planet into a habitable paradise. A terraformed Mars would still be very different from Earth. The days and years would be longer, the gravity would be lower, and the climate would be much different. While terraforming Mars is possible, it would likely take hundreds or even thousands of years and would require technology and mega-projects beyond humanity’s current capabilities. (08:11)

Humanity’s future is glorious. As we master space travel, we’ll hop from one lifeless world to the next. Li..Life will blossom in our path and the galaxy with shimmer with beautiful Earth-like orbs. Hmmm… maybe. This won’t sound so far fetched if we prove we can do it at least once. If we successfully terraform Mars. (19:37)

A focus on energy conservation brings the sciences to life in an art class at Redwood Middle School, in Napa, California. Sharon Campbell remembers sleeping out under the stars and watching Sputnik go overhead. Back then, she wanted to be the first astronaut. Instead, she became an educator. She has been teaching art now for twenty-one years at Redwood Middle School, in Napa, California, but she visits space on a regular basis, via a very special classroom.It began when Campbell won a grant from British Petroleum and went to Los Angeles for a workshop on energy conservation. She visited Southern California Edison, where she watched incoming energy switch throughout the state."It was during the heat wave, and I sat and watched California run out of electricity," she recalls. It was there she learned that power is a finite resource, and that if every homeowner installed just one energy-efficient light bulb, it would be enough to avoid a blackout for an entire year. "And that’s when the big bulb went off," she says.Campbell and her husband spent $14,000 of their own money to turn her classroom into the RMS Energy Star. Every summer and every Christmas, when her daughter Jacqueline comes to town, the family repaints the classroom. "I want it to be perfect, because my students deserve it," Campbell says. "They deserve to be in a beautiful place, to know that I want them to be here, and that the school values them." (05:54)

This video explains why bones get weaker with less gravity. It also describes how to prevent bone loss in space. The video explains how osteoclasts in our bodies eat away damaged/cracked bones and osteoblasts build the bone back up—a process known as remodeling. In space, this process is altered and osteoblasts do less building while osteoclasts eat away more bone. Scientists, doctors, and engineers are working hard to find ways to keep bones healthy in space. Exercise is an important countermeasure to help keep bones healthy in space. (5:52)

Many people dream of traveling through space and perhaps even encountering extraterrestrial life. Evidence for higher life forms is lacking, although single-celled organisms are conceivable. Fungi, bacteria, and viruses have taken up residence on the international space station, the ISS, and are getting along frighteningly well. But microbes follow humans—not the other way around.
