− | 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
| |
