This was On the news
« on: April 23, 2013, 06:29:45 PM »
Everyday I read the news, Online....And this was On their, I copy and Pasted it, so you can read...Tell me what you think  :rolleyes:
Want to spend the rest of your life on Mars? You can apply to do so now.
Mars One, a non-profit organization that plans to send humans on a one-way trip to establish a permanent settlement on Mars in 2023, began accepting online applications Monday.
"We are very excited about launching the selection program," said Bas Landorp, co-founder and CEO of the Netherlands-based group, in a statement announcing the start of the selection process. "This is an international mission and it is very important for the project that anyone anywhere can ask themselves: Do I want this? Am I ready for this? If the answer is yes then we want to hear from you."
Mars isn't for you? Read about other space tourism options
The program is looking for applicants 18 and older "who are both mature and interesting," but there is no requirement for any particular academic or professional background, as astronauts will spend seven years learning all the skills they need, said a Mars One news release.

I can see this going one of two ways.

1: Its some sick experiment.
2: Its actually legitimate and people will build a colony on Mars and live on it and be happy.


My guess is #1.

A colony on mars is easy. We just need to start the reactor to melt all the frozen ice beneath the surface

Oh and stay away from venusville

It wouldn't be that bad, more like around 20 minutes, give or take a few seconds.
