These are the evolution human will experience if they become the part of Mars colonization

News24xx.com - Elon Musk is known to have scheduled his space company, SpaceX, to be able to send humans to Mars in the mid of 2020. Who would have thought, the ambition of the man nicknamed Iron Man would face the possibility of evolving humans as soon as they landed on the Red Planet.

Scott Solomon, an evolutionary biologist and professor at Rice University, Houston, Texas, United States, argues that humans will experience evolution if they become part of colonization to Mars. The changes are not small, and the process is expected will happen soon when the person landed on the Mars.

He explained that humans would truly change after one or two generations on Mars. Their bones will be stronger, their sight will be more limited, and, most interestingly, they will stop having sex with humans on Earth. And these are the reasons of that.

Humans might form denser bones as an effect of Mars's gravity, which is only one third on Earth. This can make bones more fragile, which can cause complications such as fractures of the pelvis when a mother goes into labor.

Then, more narrow habitats make human vision on Mars more limited because they don't need to see on long distances like on Earth. Solomon said this could happen to refer to studies that showed that children who are more often in the room will have the shorter sight.
