Generation of a magnetic field on Mars

The depletion of Mars' magnetic field has led to drastic changes in its atmosphere, causing decreased temperatures and the disappearance of surface water. This depletion poses a threat to the health of astronauts and potential inhabitants due to increased solar radiation. Restoring Mars' atmosphere is crucial for human colonization. Our study focuses on optimizing a magnetic field for Mars using a theoretical model. We hypothesized that our model could generate a magnetic field of 2 T, which is the quantity needed to protect Mars, according to James Green. The model incorporates superconducting magnets, 5804 m² of solar panels, and a superconducting magnet with a current of 1.6 x 10⁴ A. Here, we explore the relationship between current and magnetic field strength. Lithium-ion batteries play a pivotal role in advancing the feasibility of this proposed method for generating a magnetic field on Mars. Their high energy density, coupled with the ability to provide sustained power over extended periods, ensures a reliable and long-lasting energy source for the spacecraft tasked with implementing this technique. The method of generating a magnetic field on Mars has broad implications, offering protection against solar wind and radiation on various celestial bodies. Implementing this method could raise Mars's temperature and melt polar ice caps. In summary, our study proposes a theoretical model for a magnetic field of 2 T on Mars, with specific parameters. This has the potential to revolutionize planetary colonization and space life sustainability.
