Will water on Mars be mined or harvested? (self.space)
submitted 2 months ago by nikaaa to c/space

If you mine something, you can't mine it again. It's gone from the ground.

If you harvest something, then wait a certain amount of time (a year, for example), you can harvest it again.

Is Water on Mars a renewable resource?

It was long thought that planets couldn’t stably orbit systems containing three stars. GW Orionis is the first counterexample.

Recent unscripted video from Cody Reeder of Cody'sLab.

I don't agree with several of his points, but he raises some interesting issues nonetheless.

Any thoughts on the optimal ways to balance human space exploration with planetary protection?
