Maybe they bring oil with them. People change a lot when they get moved from their normal place where they used to live, and get to live in another place where they lack certain things, like certain entertainment, shops or childhood fun, or even companions of the opposite sex. It might be fun and like an adventure at first, but later it might feel like living in a closed base where not many enter or leave and You lack too many things to be truly satisfied or happy. You could even be utterly bored.

I imagine the one thing that may be possible is to locate an area with geothermic potential, then find some way to collect enough water to run a generator. Of course the largest issue to overcome is when the environmentalists become involved.

More to the point how does one change the oil on a spaceship?

If its in zero g there is nothing to cause the oil to run out or for that matter in.

I thought they claimed they suntanked, besides, I wonder what kind of species I am married to nowadays :/ My husband went to Italy but when he came back He is like a completedly another man. Does men really come from Mars?

Let's say we all go to live on Mars.

Has oil been found on Mars?

If there isn't any, how are we expected to build on Mars without it?
Then we would use something else. Like different regions of the world use local materials to make bricks and cement.

Thin atmosphere would make solar power effective when there aren't dust storms.

No geothermal power on Mars, it's more or less tectonically dead.

As a environmentalist my self, I never understand people who oppose seeding Mars with new life.

I love the idea of terraforming, but it really isn't a very practical endeavour. It's faster, cheaper and easier to make thousands of space stations to live on. (And Earth is a much nicer place we sold be looking after before we start trying to build a poor knock off version).

Since we can easily extract the water and then grow algae in the tanks, and use that for water purification and oxygen production to boot.
What I means is though:

How can you build an infracture sufficient to populate a whole planet without oil?

We need oil just to drive our cars.

Bricks and cement reduce friction in your engines, do they?

I've made ice cubes in my fridge in an hour or two... therefore all the ice in Antarctica comes from my fridge.

Logic is fun! :)

No, but it got there because of the flood. Not millions of years......

So under your reasoning, all mutations come from intelligent designers in the laboratory, right?????

What's the matter, you don't like laboratory experiments because they prove it doesn't take millions of years?????

We need oil just to drive our cars.

No, we could have all electric cars that were efficient today, but the oil companies are just too greedy. Papa Bush, the only president in history to personally sign a lawsuit against a state (California) because they wanted all electric cars.....

We had an electric car in 1996 that would do 120 miles on a charge. And today we can only get 40?????

Who Killed the Electric Car?
