In the science fiction book series "red mars, green mars, blue mars" the author spins a story of "terraforming" mars with the formation of oceans and a breathable atmosphere by the end of the series. the author describes a scenario, however, where the inhabitants of this fictional world were able to live relatively normally on most of the world but not on olympus mons and the tharsus region. assuming you could create a breathable atmosphere as described in the books, is the description of where you might live on mars realistic, or just spinning a yarn

In his fiction novels Red Mars, Green Mars and Blue Mars Kim Stanley Robinson presents the colonization of the planet mars in three moments. First, in Red Mars the author depicts the colonial voyage aboard the Ares from planet Earth into Mars.

The author then presents the idea of making plants grow on Mars to sustain human beings in the new colonialized plant. Then in Blue Mars Mr. Robinson introduces the formation on all the necessary elements to create the water cycle on the plant and in consequence the formation of seas, rivers, lakes, and other water bodies. Having mentioned the former we assume that a breathable atmosphere is formed in the fictional scenario in Blue Mars and that taking into account that in Green Mars the author presented the idea of plants growing in the planet, there is no possible objection to the idea of living normally on planet Mars. If we consider the fact that there is an atmosphere, water, and plants in Mars, it would seem that living in Mars is an utterly realistic panorama.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

Ead the passage from "marriage is a private affair” by chinua achebe. "i shall never see her,” was the reply. from that night the father scarcely spoke to his son. he did not, however, cease hoping that he would realize how serious was the danger he was heading for. day and night he put him in his prayers. nnaemeka, for his own part, was very deeply affected by his father’s grief. but he kept hoping that it would pass away. if it had occurred to him that never in the history of his people had a man married a woman who spoke a different tongue, he might have been less optimistic. "it has never been heard,” was the verdict of an old man speaking a few weeks later. in that short sentence he spoke for all of his people. this man had come with others to commiserate with okeke when news went round about his son’s behaviour. by that time the son had gone back to lagos. "it has never been heard,” said the old man again with a sad shake of his head. "what did our lord say? ” asked another gentleman. "sons shall rise against their fathers; it is there in the holy book.” "it is the beginning of the end,” said another. how does this passage reinforce the traditional social hierarchy? the older men in the village tell okeke that he should respect nnaemeka’s decision. the older men in the village console nnaemeka about okeke’s attitude toward his choices. the older men in the village commiserate with okeke regarding nnaemeka’s decision to disobey him. the older men in the village think that nnaemeka should be optimistic that okeke will accept his decision.
