On Earth, human waste mostly just holds public office.

Now all the Moon and Mars will need to support Earth plant life are CO2, H2O, N, P, K, S, a few other micronutrients, warmer temperatures, protection from radiation, and adapted soil fungi and bacteria. 🤷‍♂️

We should take all those people out of public office and use them to grow plants on the moon.

So, load a spaceship with Musk, [human] sh*t and enough Ketamine. The Mars (and earth) improvement project. His choice to crash the ship or shovel out the hold. Big kudos to him for Making Mars Greater (MakMaG). He can bring a Tesla if he pays the freight on it (1st Retail EV on Mars).

They stole this from the movie.

But food still wouldn't be a human right on colonized Mars, so this means nothing

as if with the amount of microplastics and pesticides and antibiotics that would be a good thing....

Didn’t Matt Damon already grow potatoes on mars with Jessica Chastain’s poo?

BRING BACK "SOYLENT GREEN" hey everyone. Last week we learned that we can grow cherry tomatoes on earth for 1/1,000,000,000th the cost of growing them on a space station.Today we'll discover the benefits of (non political) human waste on Mars for the incredible price of 100s of billions of dollars!

I’m afraid the sheer scale of logistics involved in doing anything on Mars is just beyond most people’s comprehension. It doesn’t have a magnetosphere to protect it from solar radiation. It’s uninhabitable, now and forever.

no S**t lol

That is not the issue, the issue is radiation on Mars. If we are to build a colony it would need to be underground, like on For All Man Kind.

All the more reason to send Elon Musk on a one-way trip to Mars. He is full of shit after all...

@comrade-chubsley.bsky.social · Mar 17

Just send all of the republican bull shit artists - it will accelerate the process.

Idk why but at first I real that to mean bodies, not poop

I’m all for some of our politicians being shipped off to Mars as fertilizer…

Well, we're going to have to get the cost of moving it there below a billion dollars per ton, then.

All you'd need is water and air....

If the first thing Mars colonists grow aren't potatoes that they rename as Watneys they're missing a trick.
