The city on Mars would have to live underground #Shorts

What if the first city on Mars had no skyscrapers or transparent domes, but tunnels underground instead?

The reason is radiation: the Martian atmosphere is very thin and offers far less protection than Earth’s. That is why the first settlements would probably need to be covered with regolith, housed within sturdy structures, or even located in natural cavities.

In addition, Mars has approximately thirty-eight percent of Earth’s gravity. We still do not know for certain how that gravity would affect bones, muscles, the cardiovascular system, or pregnancies over decades.

So building there would not mean copying a city on Earth. It would mean designing a compact, technically focused, protected community where survival takes priority over postcard appeal.
