That would potentially poison him. Human, dog, cat, and generally any carnivore/ omnivore shit is considered “hot,” and must be treated before use as manure.
Mix it into compost so that the ratio is 30% droppings or less. This can be used as landscaping fertilizer, but even then it’s not recommended to use for food production.
I’m unsure. I know there happens to be a correlation between the species that are (mostly) herbivorous, and their dung being able to be used with food production. I don’t know if our gut biome would prevent the use of purely vegan poo. I prefer the sewer as a solution, or a latrine.
And because of “The Martian”, people think going to and living on Mars would be a snap.
We can’t even rescue people from orbit.
Yes, because the movie is all about how easy it was and nothing goes wrong
The movie WAS FICTION. Is fiction. Will remain fiction. Mars is less “human friendly” than the moon.
They’re not really in need of rescue though, they’re on the ISS. Their return vehicle is just a pile of garbage. Thanks again, Boeing.
They’re literally stranded in space with no way home, sounds like they need rescuing to me.

The perchlorates in the Martian regolith he uses for most of the soil would kill him faster.
Fair enough, I just knew about the feces because I wanted to have some way to actually use my dog shit. It’s not really doable at home, unfortunately.
Treated how?

And you’re saying it would be fine to use if we didn’t consume meat?

It’s FICTION. Not real. Never happened. All events portrayed in this movie aren’t real.
It is good fiction - possibly the best sci-fi movie to come along in a while, but nevertheless it’s still fiction.

I have no idea what you think other than what you’ve written.
Do you not understand that concept?
