Mars plans to drop the asteroid

Drop a small asteroid will lead to melting of subsurface ice and to the formation of the lake in the crater.

The research team has developed a plan to drop an asteroid on Mars by 2036.

Experts believe that the fall of a small asteroid will lead to melting of subsurface ice and to the formation of the lake in the crater.

A concept called the Mars Terraformer Transfer involves the use of already by 2036 automatic interplanetary station Shepard to first dock to a small mass heavenly chip, and then send it to the surface of Mars.

In the fall of a celestial body on the surface formed a crater that filled with water from the melting of ground ice. After such a shock the climate in this Martian region will become much softer.

Near the new pond would accommodate the residential dome of the colonists. And greenhouses, placed in such premises that would provide eventually a Martian colony with food and would reduce the cost of moving goods from the Ground.

“The new concept proposes to make shelter that will scale to millions of cubic meters, that is, to the size of the stadium,” explain the authors ideas.
