JAKARTA – NASA mission to Mars 2024 is a very risky mission for astronauts. There are several scenarios that astronauts do if some of their crew members die on their way to Mars or while on the red planet.
Experts say the astronauts died during NASA 2024 mission on Mars can be eaten by other crew members. Alternatively, the bodies of astronauts who died en route to Mars were sent into orbit to be ‘buried’ in the atmosphere for good.
Reported by the Daily Star, astronauts on an upcoming Mars mission will have a high risk of losing their lives. For this reason, NASA created a scenario for handling the dead bodies of those who died on Mars.

Explorers traveling to the Red Planet will spend seven months in a space capsule. This is very risky because it has never been done by mankind.
If the astronauts survive the journey, they will then have to deal with the environment Mars which is hard and there is no life support.
When a crew member dies, it can take months or years before his body is returned to Earth.
Experts have suggested a number of ways to dispose of the body if something bad happens. For example, sending a body into space or burying the person in the grave of the first human on Mars.
