Wondered about when well might settle on #Mars? Reading A City on Mars convinced me that this won’t be happening any time soon! #popscience #outerspace #science #nonfiction #spacelaw https://hollysreadingescapades.blogspot.com/2026/03/book-review-city-on-mars-by-kelly-and.html?m=1
Book Review: A City on Mars by Kelly and Zach Weinersmith

@Htaggert I read that book and thought It was hilarious and interesting.
@coleenwalter it really was well researched and I felt like hanging out with the authors would be a blast!
@Htaggert The book made me laugh out loud several times and I kept making my husband read excerpts. After finishing the book I decided that space settlements are not for me. Even if we have a Permian Period 2.0 on Earth I’m staying put.
@coleenwalter I think I’d rather live underground on earth. It really made me a bit sad but I can still dream of piloting a space hovercraft!
@Htaggert I agree! I’ll take my chances with underground burrows along with the mammal prototypes. Seriously though I need the irregular and messy variety of life on earth to be happy. Many images of space settlements are eerie utopias.
