What Happens If Someone Dies on Mars? What happens to your body when you die in space?

Have you ever thought that during trip to Mars? If an astronaut dies, what will happen to his body? If you also want to know the answer to this question, then give us some of your precious time to read this article. In 1961, the Stock One mission was done by the Soviet Union, it was the world's first space mission, in which the human went on a journey to find the secrets of space.

From the year 1961 to 2021, out of the total astronauts who went to space aboard the spacecraft for different missions, twenty-two astronauts lost their lives in space. Kalpana Chawla also died in the year 2003 after being a victim of one such space accident. No space agency has any strategy or device to stop accidents in space. That is why it would not be wrong to say that going to space is like putting one's life in danger. However, space agencies around the world are engaged in sending humans to Mars. US Space Agency NASA and Elon Musk's private company SpaceX are in the forefront of the race to land humans on Mars, which will take humans to Mars by 2030. Under this mission, the astronauts who will go to space will have to spend a full 7 months inside a space capsule. This mission will be very long as well as being circumcised, in such a situation the return of the astronauts back to the earth safely will be considered as a miracle work. Astronauts traveling from Earth to Mars, if they land safely on the red planet, then they will be put in the harsh environment there.

In such a situation, if the crew member dies during this journey, then months will pass to bring his body back to earth. While living with a dead body for such a long time will be a very difficult task for the passengers. In such a situation, the question arises that what will the astronauts do with the dead body. After the death of an astronaut in space, special people have told a special way to cremate his dead body, which is known as Jettison. Jettison is a process in which the astronaut's body is left in the dark. The same second solution is that if a space traveler dies during the journey, then his dead body should be buried on the ground of Mars. However, it is also necessary to burn the dead body before burial or else the situation may worsen. NASA is currently considering cold storage as the best instead of working on any solution. Because in this situation the expenses and difficulties will be less. It is easier to freeze the dead body in space, for this the freezer is hung outside the capsule and the body of the deceased is put inside it. If an astronaut dies before covering a distance of 17 crore miles or while returning, then also his body should be kept in cold storage easily. The cold temperature of space serves to freeze the freezer and protect the body throughout the mission. By the way, space agencies around the world want to dominate in space. But no special rules have been made regarding sending astronauts to space and their death. Even NASA, the world's most advanced American space agency, has not prepared any protocol regarding the astronauts who die in space. Whereas the owner of SpaceX, Elon Musk says that if you want to go to Mars, then you should be ready to die too.

Although researches around the world are working on the plan of the funeral of the bodies of the spacemen who lost their lives during the journey of space.

Astronauts have to face many problems and many challenges before and after going to space travel, one of which is lack of food. The food needs of the astronauts are taken care of before going on the mission, but many times the food is spoiled or over-eaten. So, in this situation, if the astronauts going to Mars ran out of food and if their crew member dies, then in that case the astronauts will have no other option but to eat the meat of their partner. There is no other means to eradicate hunger in space, in such a situation, the astronauts will have to live by eating the corpse of their deceased companion. It is a sure way of keeping oneself alive in the face of adversity and using the existing things.

 Now you must have understood that by adopting some technology in space the bodies of deceased astronauts may be cremated.
