Space colony on Mars
Mars colony. Computer illustration of a city colony on the surface of Mars. The colony is covered by a transparent dome to protect its 500 inhabitants. This is because the atmosphere of Mars is very thin, having a pressure at the surface which is only 0.6% that of Earth s. Mars atmosphere is comprised of 95% carbon dioxide, a poisonous gas. The city is built in a crater on Pavonis Mons, an extinct volcano

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a futuristic vision of a space colony on Mars. A computer illustration brings to life an extraordinary city settlement nestled on the surface of the red planet. The colony, home to 500 inhabitants, is ingeniously protected by a transparent dome that shields its residents from Mars' harsh environment. With an atmosphere so thin and pressure only amounting to 0.6% of Earth's, this dome becomes vital for survival. Mars' atmosphere poses another challenge as it consists predominantly of carbon dioxide, a poisonous gas unsuitable for human habitation. However, against all odds, this thriving city has found its place within Pavonis Mons' crater—an extinct volcano—creating an awe-inspiring sight. The image not only sparks our imagination but also highlights humanity's relentless pursuit of exploration and colonization beyond our own planet. It serves as a reminder that we are capable of pushing boundaries and venturing into uncharted territories in search of new frontiers. Science Photo Library presents us with this remarkable artwork capturing the essence of Martian colonization—a testament to mankind's indomitable spirit and unwavering curiosity about what lies beyond our earthly confines.
