Why send humans to Mars?
Bill Nye, The Planetary Science Guy
“You’ll make discoveries and you’ll have an adventure”
http://www.businessinsider.com/bill-nye-why-send-humans-to-mars-2015-4
“And even if robots become so advanced that they can
compete with a human explorer, that wouldn't change
anything, Nye said. We'd still want to explore ourselves.
Lust for adventure and the tantalizing idea that we
could discover something new would still exist.

What tasks will pre-deployed
robots perform?
• Unpack landers and setup equipment.
• Initialize systems, and keep them running.
…… then patiently wait for humans to arrive.

ISS Robotic Maintenance
Main Points
• Astronauts and robots will perform science
tasks, but let’s not forget about the
adventure.
• Robots will enable humans assets to be
pre-deployed, setup and maintained while
waiting for humans to arrive.
