Mars: What It Really Takes

di John Fryer (Autore)

John Fryer, 2026

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. People often speak of Mars as the next logical step for humanity — a place one might reasonably visit, settle, and eventually thrive. This audiobook asks a quieter, more uncomfortable question: what would it really take for humans to live there? Mars: What It Really Takes looks beyond rockets, press conferences, and optimistic timelines to examine the physical, psychological, and social realities of long-term life on another planet. It considers radiation, gravity, isolation, work, law, culture, food, dust, and the limits of terraforming — not as technical problems to be solved quickly, but as conditions that would have to be endured indefinitely. This is not a book about heroic missions or guaranteed futures. It does not argue for or against going to Mars. Instead, it treats colonisation as an audit: of biology, engineering, governance, and human nature itself. Written for curious non-specialists, this audiobook avoids technical overload while refusing to pretend the challenges are smaller than they are. It assumes interest, not expertise — and offers clarity without hype. Mars may be reachable. Living there is another matter.
