The United Arab Emirates Just Released Plans to Build a City on Mars
NASA and SpaceX aren't the only players in the Mars colonisation game, with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) having just outlined an ambitious plan of its own: to build a city the size of Chicago on the Red Planet.
While US interests are intent on shipping us to Mars within the next two decades, the UAE is taking a decidedly more long-term view, with its "Mars 2117"project set to design, build, and populate a human colony on Mars over the course of the next 100 years.
Announcing the plan at the World Government Summit in Dubai on Tuesday, UAE vice president and ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, described Mars 2117 as an ongoing UAE effort to develop scientific knowledge until Mars colonisation is possible, with the help of international partners.
"The new project is a seed that we plant today, and we expect future generations to reap the benefits, driven by its passion to learn to unveil a new knowledge," said Sheikh Mohammed.
