\nName advantages and disadvantages of each type
\nWhat sort of tactics were deployed by each side to convince people their way was better?

\nFrom what you have learned from this class:

\nWhat would be needed to ensure humans could survive on Mars? In particular, where would we get our food, our oxygen, our water and our energy?
\nIf you were tasked with sending people to Mars, give a time-line of how they would get there, what would they bring, how long would they stay and what advice you would give anyone who wanted to go?
