This 17 year old is preparing to be the first human to walk on Mars

While the entire space industry is looking for ways to colonize Mars, the big question of who will be the first human to set foot on our neighboring planet may have received a response recently . According to Internet reports, Alyssa Carson, a teenager from Louisiana, United States could be the first person to walk on the surface of the red planet. The likelihood of this happening is further propelled by the fact that the 17-year-old athlete is already training to become an astronaut and has completed NASA's passport program, having visited all the centers of Canada. NASA home in the United States.

Although Alyssa Carson can not apply to NASA's astronaut training program before the age of 18, the teenager is set to become the ideal candidate for the America's first space mission on Mars, which is due to take off in 2033. In her interview with TeenVogue, Alyssa said that she was still obsessed with Mars explorations: "I started to watching videos of rovers landing on Mars.I had a gigantic map of Mars in my room that I was watching.We started getting telescopes so we could look at the space, "she said.

To date, Alyssa has been trained for microgravity and oxygen deprivation. She is also learning three additional languages: French, Chinese and Spanish. She is also the youngest person to have graduated from Advanced Possum Academy, which has her technically certified to go into space.
As for other future projects, Alyssa also plans to become a teacher or president someday. "But the way I always thought about it was that I would become an astronaut, go to Mars, come back, be a professor or president," she says.

So what are the extremes she will face if she becomes the first person to make history? Obstacles range from lethal solar radiation to extremely low atmospheric pressure on the surface of the red planet. The technology needed to survive most of these difficulties is yet to be developed and only time will tell if the space agency is ready to send this ambitious teenager to Mars, if ever. According to NASA, one of the most dangerous weather challenges on the planet will be the dust storms that typically occur in southern spring and summer. These storms can become gigantic, so that they encompass the entire planet.
