The Mission
"The missions to other planets, as well as ideas for planetary-scale engineering are a necessary duty for humanity and a logical consequence of our unique cognitive and technological capabilities."

Simply stated we have arrived at a crux point wherein extensive and expansive space exploration is possible with current aeronautical systems but limited by human biology. To correct the observed genetic changes which occur in space flight and protect against additional anticipated risks, we can draw from the unique genetic elements of extremophile species. I aim to research, discover, and discuss the various factors fit for this purpose as presented in organisms native to the Atacama Desert.
