    I've been pointing out the Valles Marinares as a good spot for over a decade. Radiation and meteor strikes will be the biggest dangers for humans on Mars. Being down in these canyons will provide essential natural protection for any base, building into the wall itself might also be possible? Then you have a best spot example for any attempts to propagate plants or experiment with water etc.
    Nice they found water-ice near these locations, that is a huge bit of good luck 👍

      They didn't find ice near it, They speculate there could be small amounts of ice under the crust after recent scans. No where near the volume which could be extracted on mass. The only place they can do that is at the poles.
      Also, plants won't grow there. Not unless you are going to bring all the soil from Earth too

      Hydroponics and vertical plant farming. The only issue is maintaining and controlling temperature and internal atmosphere in the Mars food growing terrariums. That will require electrical power. Being it's a closed system everything is recycled. So you will need a few tons of chemical nutrients and enough water to start with.

    wouldn't the deep canyons also offer up protection against cosmic/solar radiation? Like meteors, radiation that hits at and angle would be absorbed by the canyon walls, only radiation hitting close to 90 degrees would get through, which would, in my estimation, be a considerable reduction.

    The canyon Valles Marineris is very deep and the atmospheric pressure would be increasingly greater as one descends into it. This could allow a lifting body type space vehicle (like the Sierra Space Dream Chaser Spaceplane), to be used as a reusable re-entry vehicle requiring far less fuel for a mission to Mars. The atmosphere over all is quite thin and landing speed would be very high but with a landing strip that could easily exceed 2000 miles in length this wouldn't necessarily be an issue.

    Good one, one of the best, with stunning imagery. I knew about the Mariner probe to Mars so many decades ago but did not know the massive canyon was named after it, a good tid bit of knowledge. Yeah, looks like a good place to go if we do in near or long term. But for me now too old, so it is only an "interesting thing". Sort of like knowing there are tigers and polar bears in wilds of this planet. I will never see them but glad we still have them, for now. Same with Mars, a nice place to visit maybe, plant a flag and get back home. Like the moon was too, decades ago. Good place for adventurous souls who may want to make a quick buck, mining or something to do with space science, and get home to spend it. See the great old sci fi movie "Outland" starring Sean Connery in a non-007 James Bond role for an example of that, on, I think, the Jupiter moon Io, where he was the local "sheriff" in town/colony!!

    There is in fact a LOT of water ice at mid latitudes also.
    More papers are coming out on this caldera complex. Fascinating location. Tons of water almost certainly, and probably some really interesting mineralization. I joked to one of the scientists who discovered this that it would be funny if there were enormous epithermal copper/silver/gold deposits around the ring fractures -- because no plate tectonics, so the same area of crust has remained over the hotspot for vastly longer than would be the case on Earth -- and he didn't object to the speculation. Said there's mineralization in the area that hasn't been characterized yet.

    42:50 As an American in Japan, this cicada "scare" is hilarious. It's far worse than that in Japan every summer. So hearing that people are contacting 911, I burst out laughing. 😂
    I would love to hear their reasons for contacting 911, what threat to life and property they thought was happening, and what they expected emergency services to do about it.
    Cicadas are actually a great thing for Nature. It a sudden burst of food for pretty much everything bigger than a cicada.
    I get it that they're extremely loud, and only get louder as the weather gets hotter, but in Japan, just like earthquakes, that's life.

    These weigh about 1200 tons now but larger craft made in lunar orbit can manage a lightend version in pieces with a couple of transits.

    Never mind, I'll save you the trouble, it means 'one of a kind'. There's no such thing as 'very unique' and certainly not 'unique to several different places'. It's not that difficult a word to understand, it's surprising how many people seem to have trouble with it.

    It is no mystery that the planet is growing. Just like all planets grow. The planet Mars shows perfect growth signs in that they are not worn away by water erosion. Take that into account and the mystery is solved. If there will ever become any civilization there it will need to be far below the surface where there may actually be water and where oxygen can possibly exist.

    Would love a similar video feature on Hellas Planitia impact crater on mars, which I believe was caused by mars' head-on collision with a large asteroid that threatened existence of life on earth. I believe too, the collision caused the triangle of volcanic eruptions, including Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the solar system. These eruptions typically occurred about the opposite end of the collision impact. Earth's function as a pristine haven of life-forms, was only possible with the network of planets in the solar system and their moons acting as waste-baskets, knocking out dangerous asteroids. Our solar system (as the rest of our milky-way galaxy and entire universe) is clearly not evolutionary (random), but a God-designed system making existence of life on earth possible. Mars' purpose is clearly not human habitation and our attempts to live there are as revolutionary as turning a rest-room into a kitchen.

    I just feel like ceres would be a better choice. Mars is already true dry, its atmosphere is practically all but not there, and its soil is toxic.
    Ceres has less of a gravity well. It is a planetary core so has valuable materials near the surface. Can easily go and drag and drop nearby asteroids on it for processing. A colony needs to be subterranean either one. Can import ice from closer gas planet rings.
