Green Skin and Poor Eyesight: Potential Human Mutations on Mars
Living on Mars could cause humans to develop green skin and lose eyesight due to mutations caused by high radiation and low gravity, warns Biologist Dr. Scott Solomon from Rice University. Harsh conditions on the Red Planet may also lead to weak muscles and brittle bones. NASA and SpaceX are planning human missions to Mars in the coming decades, despite these potential risks.
The harsh environment on Mars presents significant challenges for human colonization, with potential mutations such as green skin and poor eyesight.
Biologist Dr. Scott Solomon from Rice University explains that children born on Mars could face mutations due to low gravity, high radiation, and lack of a magnetic field.
These conditions may lead to weak muscles, brittle bones, and altered skin pigmentation to cope with radiation.
Plans for human missions to Mars by NASA and SpaceX are underway, despite these possible challenges.
