A new study claims that it would only take 22 people to start a Mars colony, but that some personalities might not do so well.
. The study not only ran simulations to see how many human colonists would be needed to optimally set up a colony, but it also compared different personalities to see how they would interact and behave on such a long and isolating mission.
The study says the magic number for the smallest population of colonists that could build and sustain a Mars colony would be 22. Further, the researchers say the simulation looked at four different personalities to see how they would handle the interactions between people with varying levels of skill, stress, and resilience. They found that people who were reactive, sociable, and agreeable could successfully work within the simulated Martian colony without much issue.
and possibly colonize the planet in any way. It’s often easy to think of humans as numbers and pieces of an equation. But, as the researchers note in their study, our distinct personalities bring a lot of complexity to the situation, so it is important to take that into consideration as well. “We wanted to show that if we neglect the social, behavioral and psychological aspects of space explorations, we can err grossly in our estimations, predictions and projections,” Anamaria Berea, co-author on the study,
