Team:UCopenhagen/Why Colonize Mars
Why colonize Mars?
On this page you can read about our collaboration with the other Danish iGEM team from the technical university of Denmark, Hyphae hackers, and the iGEM team from the University of Exeter, Project perchlorate. We have had an extensive collaboration from early in the process, resulting in a cross disciplinary report on Mars colonization in which we together examine the motivations for Mars colonization, and the bioethical concerns of bringing humans to Mars. We have furthermore collaborated with the DTU iGEM team Hyphae hackers on an event held in the Tycho Brahe Planetarium in Copenhagen.
Our collaboration with Hyphae Hackers and Project Perchlorate is substantial because:
- We have been working closely together on making a report on Mars colonization
- We have used the conclusions from the report in our dialogues with laymen on a major culture event in Copenhagen
