Sending humans to Mars is technically feasible from an engineering standpoint, with the primary obstacles being financial and logistical rather than a lack of capability.

“the answer is yes no one is saying we can't go to mars because we can't figure it out that is not the issue the issue is it's expensive do people want to do it for that much money”

Robotic missions are more efficient and safer for Mars exploration than human missions.

“it's better to have robots there doing that stuff because they can be more efficient. They can do just as good of a job as a human. I mean, we have hands with fingers on them and like we're we're not great for those environments and it's also like really not safe.”

Billy Carson believes Mars was once an inhabited, water-rich planet that was impacted by a celestial collision, leading to its current state.

“It was a water-bearing planet with land and life. Now, who wrote that? How did they know that this planet had land and life and that it and then and that it rivaled the sun's glory?”

Mars exploration is a necessary endeavor to uncover history and potentially identify signs of ancient life on the planet.

“we need to go and get the rock samples that tell the history of mars and we need to bring them back and and that that was the thrust of what perseverance is going to do”

Sending humans to Mars is a realistic goal within the current generation's lifetime.

“I think it is 100% possible in our lifetime that we're going to send humans to Mars”
