1. On Mars: You Would Be Taller, Thinner, and Have Powerful Lungs
Growing up on Mars, with only thirty eight percent of Earth’s gravity, your body would stretch out over time. You would be taller and leaner, with less muscle and bone density.
Your lungs would adapt to extract oxygen from Mars’s thin atmosphere, and your skin would darken to protect against the high levels of solar radiation. Your eyes would adjust to low light conditions, and your tears would become thicker to shield them from dust storms.
