I'd go.
If I got sent the most recent video games then I'd do it.
oh guys here's a great idea:

That still haunts my memories.
You will have to go through a NASA training program. That's mean you will have to become a straight edge.
Its a miss for me.
Good luck volunteering, you need to be a borderline superhero to do anything associated with NASA.
If you've ever done non-spectacularly on anything ever academically or are not in peak physical condition it's out the window.
He's right, though. Mars is a very attainable goal. You simply need to find an on-site source of oxygen and a suitable space to burrow below ground.
Well I've got 20 years of training ahead of me. Good night Facepunch.
[QUOTE=JLea;25781700]I wonder how babbys born on mars would grow up to be. It's only got 38% surface gravity of earth, so they could be really really tall but weak @_@[/QUOTE]
A proper colony would include artificial gravity via centripetal force if there was an on-site fuel source. If not, probably a lot of exercising.
Good luck to nasa finding the quality volunteers there looking for. People like that have familys and shit.
Easier, cheaper and more entertaining to send the average joe.
It isn't "easier". They would have to spend a decade or so educating them on space flight and math and shit like that.
Fuck yeah I'd sign up if I wasn't a fat sack of bones. I'd probably passout from the Gs just breaking the atmosphere.

Fuck yeah though, this is fucking awesome! This is fucking awesome! AWESOME! This is just how it's supposed to be! YYYAAAAAY! I'm so happy
[editline]1st November 2010[/editline]
FINALLY! I'm so happy!
I'd go if they would give me an laptop/pc with internet.
I'd rather enjoy my life than live longer.

Computers...
10 females to each male! We shall procreate when we get there!
I won't mind going, I have no illness or anything but I would love to be one of the first people on Mars.
I'm not sure if i would go, would be pretty damn awesome living on another planet, but even know earth sucks, i would definitely miss it.
I hope that if this plan goes through, they only send atheists.

You can't get boners in space :frown:

Oh ye lets send idiots there.
[QUOTE=evlbzltyr;25774294]Oh shit, the next Fallout game should totally be set on Mars. Where there's no nuclear war ruins but the base is falling to pieces due to the lack of shuttles from Earth and stuff. That'd be sweeeeeeeet.[/QUOTE]
Fallout =/= Red Faction
where to sign-up ? I'm ready to go
[QUOTE=Killowatt;25768871]And Internet[/QUOTE]
Imagine what your ping will be.

Well, in New Vegas [sp]A group of ghouls fly into space, maybe they started a colony?[/sp]
Contribute to the biggest step in human space travel?
It would be selfish not to go.
Nasa will need to research how to have sex in space before they do this...
Maybe some sort of device that locks the dick into a tube and you put that into the woman?
I'd do it if I could at least survive for 5 years there.
[QUOTE=Matthew0505;25784550]How can you believe in god when you can clearly see there is no heaven in space[/QUOTE]
Exactly.
Another thing I'm wondering about this program is that what is the political side of things going to be like. Are the colonisers going to get to rule themselves is someone from Earth going to try and take over
Is there wireless on Mars?
