Space1 Mars in 2020

Landing on Mars in 2020
SPACE1 has its sights on Mars in 2020 when it makes its second closest approach to the Earth on October 6th. Will the Martian planetary globe be a big dud and fizzle out with another great global dust storm to block out all main features? Or will it have a spectacular clearing where humanity can study and visit the planet?

Mars was 35.8 million miles from the Earth on July 31st, 2018. On October 6th, 2020, Mars will be 38.6 million miles away, perfect for a space launch to the planet using the more rapid traveling EM Safety Rocket.

One big unknown is the huge blanket dust storm that may occur, the same as it did in 2018. It was the effects of this massive storm obliterating sunlight for months that shut down the Mars rover permanently. Such a storm in 2020 would put a stopper on all Mars missions, studies and a Mars landing.

SPACE1 is looking at supporting manned missions to Mars, the exodus of the human race to Mars, Mars colonists and Mars colonial architecture, helping to create a multi-planetary species, and assisting SpaceX and other private space industry.

SPACE1 has its own local Earth weather station to study and examine the Earth's atmospheric conditions, changing weather patterns and parameters for rocket launch and astronomy. But is this enough for space tourism?

Now SPACE1 has created a Space Weather Station, and added the Space Weather division - joining forces with the astronomical observatory laboratory, which monitors space weather for space travel.

Space weather includes the rain of particles from space and the Sun. This may include flares, supernova, solar wind, cosmic rays, heavy neutrons, protons, xrays, gamma ray bursts, and other harmful particles. These harmful particles may effect space walks, ejectables, electronics, processors, sensitive equipment, nano devices, and craft such as drop satellites and other devices. Predicting space weather is an important part of space tourism.
