| Colonists on [[Mars]] will live under special circumstances, possibly causing psychological problems. There might be the risk of somebody '''running amok''', endangering the whole [[colony]]. The following attacks are possible:
| | #redirect [[human failure]] |
| * Destruction of life support ([[oxygen]], [[temperature]], [[water]])
| |
| * Contamination of [[air]] or [[food]] with radioactive, chemical or bacteriological substances
| |
| * Destruction or contamination of [[greenhouse]]s
| |
| * Disconnection or destruction of [[energy]] network
| |
| * Disconnection or destruction of [[internet|telecommunication]] network
| |
| * Explosion, causing drop in air pressure
| |
| * Destruction of [[vehicles]] that are needed to reach peripheral sites of the colony
| |
| * Destruction of [[equipment]] that is needed for maintenance of vital systems
| |
| | |
| This risk and the implications can be mitigated by some precautions. This page is meant to develop preventive concepts to make the colony safe against such attacks.
| |
| | |
| ==Psychological surveillance==
| |
| Periodic testing and group training can help to diagnose and counteract psychological illnesses early.
| |
| | |
| ==Technical precautions==
| |
| The [[Fail-safe]] principles are mandatory for [[building]]s and vital systems. For a single person it must not be possible to create a situation that causes a complete failure in the colony.
