How much does Earth cost – why is Mars so cheap?

How much does Earth cost – why is Mars so cheap?

Clearly, Earth’s resources and the value they provide to humans come at a tremendous cost. Humanity will probably never have to worry about the arrival of a man who will push and buy or sell the entire Earth or this strange planet.

However, trying to roughly quantify its economic value may help us estimate the value of the people who surround and/or shape our lives.

In 2020, Yale astronomy professor Greg Loughlin tried to develop a special formula to give tymola to the entire planet.

According to Loughlin’s calculations, the land is worth about $5 quadrillion dollars (or $5,000,000,000,000,000). The professor arrived at this value after a series of calculations that included variables such as mass, temperature, age, and other factors directly related to the Earth’s ability to support life.

Other planets?

Using the same assumption, Loughlin also calculated the value of other planets within our solar system. Our nearest neighbor, Mars, which has barely any evidence of life, costs $16,000, the same price as a new small car. But this is a fortune compared to Venus, which was valued at one cent. This is likely because Venus’ atmosphere is 96% carbon dioxide, and the planet’s surface wind speed is 224 miles per hour. Venus is not the definition of “good quality of life.”

This hypothetical Loughlin “bill” was unveiled three years ago, for no profit or similar purposes. The sole purpose of the professor is to appreciate the world and the universe as a whole that surrounds us.
