I'll go. NOW. And damned right I'll grow and smoke the first Martian chronic!
You've just given the best reason why it must be done, asap.That money n resources should be spent on this planet, instead of destroying Earth n looking for a new place to fuck up.
The difference between a first mission and an advance party is the level of logistical support coming directly after. I'll go on the advance party.The first mission will be disastrous.. No survivors..I do think they will eventually get it right though.
Yup, the eternal reason to explore; resources.We're afraid we'll turn earth into a less hospitable planet.
So let's go to a completely inhospitable planet...
Sorry. Makes zero sense. It's being marketed with capitalism as the goal.
it's roughly between 10 and 20 months, but those are averaged with unmanned spacecraft.What's it take to get there like 18 months one way?
here we go my brother..Then continue to explore earth. Resources exploration is for the 1%
You're using resources right now. Don't imply you're above this fray. Civilisation needs them, there's no doubting or stopping that. We can get them responsibly or not, but we need to get them from off planet sources sooner rather than later. Why? So we can stop destroying our birthplace.Then continue to explore earth. Resources exploration is for the 1%
That's my point.Why would they plan manned missions if they're assured death?
oh they are. but honestly it's probably the money that's keeping it from happening..Yet they're planning to send men. Are they not aware of the risk?

They'll last long enough to set down roots. Hell, living here on Earth will eventual kill every last one of us, so a change of scenery appeals. Freedom to do what you want and live or die by the consequences. Literally.Hundreds signed up for this one way trip, its a suicide mission but they will be famous...for about a week.
I'm still wondering about the point of return bus service.I'm thinking they know the risks between here and there. I have no doubt they could get a human there and back safely. Just an extraordinary amount of resources
