The debate about taking humans to Mars has been going on for decades, but NASA has started work on building the most powerful rocket to make it possible.
The challenge of landing humans on Mars also includes the problem of bringing and transporting heavy equipment from the planet, which would take about two years for just one orbit if current rocket technology was used. The rocket, the Pulsed Plasma Rocket (PPR) being developed by NASA, is a rocket system designed to travel far into space.
This will greatly shorten the journey between Earth and Mars. NASA said in a statement that this technology would be able to transport astronauts and cargo to and from Mars more efficiently and quickly than current spacecraft. .
NASA said that PPR aims to revolutionize future long-distance space missions to Mars. It will likely complete the journey to the planet in just 2 months. The rocket will be capable of generating 100,000 power of energy with a specific impulse of 5000 seconds.
