Question: Do I get water, electricity, and video games?
Also a girlfriend

It has happened in the past, it'll happen again. I'm a very likable, charismatic man who cares more about who a person is than the size of their breasts.

I probably won't. I like the idea, but I don't want to leave Earth to stay on Mars if colonization has just started. Now if it were more developed and can easily sustain a livable environment, then I wouldn't mind.

I am assuming that this question is meant for the current present state of Mars, since there is no colonization on Mars at this very moment.

In a heart beat. Especially if Pike is there colonizing with me.

I meant that in a non-sexual way but I'm pretty sure that's not how it sounded.

Only if they had Mars Corporation products for sale there while the Mars Volta was performing while eating said products.

Correct. The question is whether or not you would go without knowing if you'd be able to return.


“In theory, it is less complex to get people back to Earth once you have a sustainable settlement on Mars,” Lansdorp told FoxNews.com. “However, our astronauts will be offered a one-way trip. We have no idea when it will be possible to offer return tickets.”

No, I don't think so, I'd miss snow and mountains and blue sky and ice cubes.

Yeah, I definitely don't want to go. No way to sustain my life if I can't get my dialysis treatment on Mars.

Nope. :)

This is my home planet, and I've honestly never been all that fascinated with space.

Those folks will never make it. HAL will kill them off before they reach Mars.

I can't let you do that Hal.

See, we'd know what to do in case of mindworms.

Kill them with fire! And build more terraformers to get the fungus under control. But I assume those will kill it with fire too.

Of course I jolly well would. Even if I just ended up dying over there very rapidly at least I'd've been on Mars.

There's no going back to the Earth if it's no longer there, so why not?

...The Earth exploded, right?

Yes, Faris. Yes. The Earth blew up and we all died. Which is why we're discussing leaving. Why stay here if the planet's already gone, right?

I did go to Mars. I found upon my arrival that my strength and agility were amplified due to the extremely low gravity there. I quickly rose through the ranks of the alien race I encountered there, met and fell in love with a human princess, and became king of Mars. But now I'm back on Earth and I'm desperately trying to find a way to remedy that. :(

Maybe if I only had 10 or less years to live but I assume then I wouldnt pass the health requirements to go on the mission
