First Two Mars Debates


Believe it or not, there actually is a lot of debate going on around the idea of a mission to mars in "the real world." What do you think? In your Advisories, split into pro and con groups for each of the two questions. In those groups, brainstorm arguments for your position backed by what you find on Debatepedia and any other websites you find useful. After 20 minutes of research and discussion you should elect a scribe and put your opinions on paper. Once you've done all that, we'll reconvene in the boardroom for a discussion of the issues.

The Questions:

1. Would a mission to Mars provide needed inspiration to the World?

2. Does a manned mission to Mars have scientific value?

Remember....start your research with Debatepedia
