To Mars and never come back

[Chemical]

Home - Mars One

Dutch company is currently looking for applicants to take a one way ticket to Mars to set up a permanent settlement in 2023. The only catch is if you go you can never come back. Okay, the other only catch is your life on this distant planet will be broadcast to the world as a reality television show. Currently 1,000 applications have been received for the initial batch of pioneers.

If you qualified would you go let alone apply?

I would say yes, I would love to be one of the first to settle on Mars... the mere thought just blows my mind in awesomeness.

If I didn't have responsibilities here on earth, I'd do it in a heartbeat, absolutely. I've seriously thought about talking my wife into it when they start asking for families.

[Jinx]

No.

[Aulayna]

Am I the only one who thinks that this makes a perfect setting for a Horror film? xD

[Leeza]

No, Aulayna. I'm with you there. Seen too many sci-fi/horror movies.

No, I would not go.

I would go! My existence would be remembered forever.

[Shorty]

Hell no I wouldn't do it. My life is here, not on Mars.

Okay, I might go if I could bring all of my trout and all of my pets and pick my companions and be supplied with an unlimited amount of sixlets and gin and turn the transportation into a party shuttle. Other than that, no.

[Jinx]

Too dry for me.

They better send mixed genders, or I'm not interested.

[Calliope]

Bwahaha, what if you suckers did this and then it was just like The Truman Show?

Quick, someone help me fund a " space exploration and research facility". We can cook up some hostile aliens to harass the home base and steal all the booze, and then we'll have one benevolent one that just wants to learn to ride a bicycle.

The astronauts must be intelligent, creative, psychologically stable and physically healthy.

What are the qualifications to apply? - Mars One

So, no... these wont be your typical reality show participants.

I'd be pretty down. Colonizing Mars would be quite the accomplishment.

Julian would obviously be the one POPULATING Mars.
