Description

Our species which is more often known as 'The Homospaiens' were born on earth. But we are not destined to live here forever! Through hundreds and thousands of years of gathering knowledge and information we have adopted science and have understood the intrinsic mechanisms of nature. 

Rocket science, which is a relatively new subject not more than 100 years old, has given us the opportunity to leave earth and go to other planets to quench our curiosity and never-ending thirst for exploration. It's been 50 years since we have stepped on Moon. But carrying out manned missions to Mars is a lot more difficult.

But it's time now! Government and Private Space-Tech firms like NASA and SpaceX are determined to organize manned missions to the Red Planet within the next two to three years and that will lay the path for future human colonies on the planet.   

So how ready we are for the next "one small step for man and a giant leap for mankind"? In the first module of AstroCos Edge, we have blended astronomy and rocket science in perfect proportions to give you a complete idea of our nearest planet and all the technicalities and difficulties involved to conduct a human mission to Mars.
