    I think we shuld espend more resourses for combat bordon because we culd faind another abitable planet for liveor get more valuable resourses for spend more in the space trips by humans.
    in my reserch y faind thath we shuld pik op som things for entretain the astronauts and combat the bordom or wait until it takes les time for go to mars or other planets until that we shoul continue sending robots
    y agre because we shuld jab another planet jost in cais and pik up some valuanbble resourses

    Combating Astronaut`s Boredom while traveling to Mars-Is the effort to combat boredom worth the expence?

    Although they don’t have the range of options we have on Earth, they can do many of the same things we do to avoid boredom. They might talk to friends and family members via the Internet. According with this information I think that astronauts are at a advantage on Mars than on Earth. Because on Earth you can do many things than Mars. So, I agree.

    I think there are some arguments that I don't agree with. For example, on Mars you have an advantage than on Earth. I think there is a disadvantage on Mars because on Earth there are more things to do and there are more resources than on Mars.

I think that astronauts have less advantage on Mars since astronauts on Earth have a lot of space to run and can do more things like I went for a walk in the street or go to the patio etc. that is why I do not agree

    I think there are some arguments that I don't agree with. For example, on Mars you have an advantage than on Earth. I think there is a disadvantage on Mars because on Earth there are more things to do and there are more resources than on Mars.
