Scientists have figured out what qualities humans colonizing Mars should not possess.
If Mars is ever colonized, the first people who set out to conquer the new planet will definitely not include neurotics.
The key character traits that will be required colonizers, called benevolence, the ability to unite and work in a team, as well as emotional stability.
Such conclusions were made by American scientists who modeled the life of people on Mars. Another discovery that scientists have made is that 22 people will be enough to colonize Mars, not 110, as previously thought.
It turned out that because of the different calculation of Martian years to provide everything necessary will require fewer people.
But it will be necessary to pay great attention to their health and stress factors, because of which the process of colonization may deteriorate, scientists are confident. Moreover, at this point it is not known how human health will be affected by reduced gravity and how they will behave in stressful situations while on another planet, the scientists noted in a paper published on the arXiv preprint server.
Earlier on the dirt found on Mars, scientists have come to the conclusion that there was definitely life here before.
