Time Travel: The total journey time from Earth to Mars takes between 150-300 days depending on the speed of the launch, the alignment of Earth and Mars, and the length of the journey the spacecraft takes to reach its target. It really just depends on how much fuel you’re willing to burn to get there. Probability of Technical Success: The company knows the technology available, how to get it if they don’t have it, and have integrated external technology before. They also know where external technology is and that it is available. (Ex. 75 = 75%) Flexibility of Change: Change is essential to the long-term success and survival of organizations. The substances for change may come from external pressures or can be internally by the organization’s leaders. Each of the remaining factors will be scored from 1 to 10 Strategic Leverage: Examines how to analyze business structure, determines a company's competitiveness, and details how to use the analysis by anticipating or changing the rules of the game or the game itself and its ability of the project to employ and elevate company resources and skills. Energy Use: The Sun emits a tremendous amount of energy every second of every day. The exact amount is unknown but it is estimated to be 400,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (4 x 1026 ) watts. A very small fraction of the Sun’s energy makes it to the Earth, which still is an extremely large amount. Most of that energy is already used in the form of heat, or by plants needing the light for photosynthesis, converting carbon dioxide into sugars and eventually releasing breathable oxygen, but it still leaves a large portion un-used and ready for capture.
