This woman could give birth to first ever Martian baby in £4bn plan to colonise Mars
Maggie Lieu, an astrophysics student at Birmingham University, has already made the 600-strong shortlist to be part of the ambitious Mars One project
It might sound like the plot of a science fiction movie, but this woman could become the first to give birth to a Martian baby.
Maggie Lieu, from Tile Hill, Coventry, may be one of the first people to make the 140 million-mile one-way trip to the Red Planet, if plans to colonise Mars get off the ground.
The 24-year-old will find out next month if she will be part of the project known as Mars One, reports the Coventry Telegraph.
She has already made the 600-strong shortlist to make the £4billion trip – down from 200,000 initial applicants – and she would start training this year if she makes the final 40 line-up.
Mothers face challenges everyday here on Earth, but on Mars Maggie would have to contend with temperatures as low as -62C, lethal levels of radiation and the dangers of suffocation, starvation and dehydration.
Despite that, the former Tile Hill Wood School pupil says she would be committed to the mission of colonising the planet.
She said: “To start a colony we would have to have children on Mars, eventually it would happen.
“It would be challenging, nobody has done any research on giving birth in a low-gravity environment.
“I think it would be a funny thing because the first child born on Mars would be the first Martian!
