Mars One

Not sure if this has already been posted, (sorry if it has) but this looks amazing. I can't wait to see how this comes along.

Would you leave your life here on Earth to live on Mars?

hi Anthony,

Thanks for posting.

That would be some seachange.

Hopefully they can get the funding and get it happening.

Cheers

I'd definitely go. But I'd miss my family like hell. Imagine saying goodbye for the very last time ever....

A fascinating concept, I'll definitely be following how they proceed.

It's definitely going to be a spartan lifestyle for the first arrivals that's for sure.

And no chance of rescue if it all turns to custard. At my age I don't think Mars 1 will be accepting my application.
