"Curiosity" on Mars

[VolkerP]

Any voluteers for a sucicide mission to Mars....knowing you could never get back home?

Consider: All transport will be electric. There will be neither taxes nor lawyers for the first decades on mars. Shouldn't that make up for the missing return ticket?

Mars One plans human colonization of Mars by April 2023

Thanks to markwj for posting this link.
Very interesting article and video but I think I'll wait at least until retirement before heading to Mars.
But by then they probably won't want me as they need young healthy specimens to populate the planet....
Soylent Green anyone?

It will probably be like the American Wild West used to be......only with Laser Guns....

I believe that is Elon Musk's plan as well.
