Mars is the next frontier for man, but they won't be coming back. It's a one way trip: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.space.com/24112-private-mars-colony-1058-martian-volunteers.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.space.com/24112-private-mars ... teers.html</a>

You have to really asses the mental state of people that want to go live and die on Mars. Just craziness

NASA are screening of course. 200,000 applicants, down to 1,000 potential candidates.

I just cant believe people would practically condemn themselves to an early death to go to a dusty red planet..
Then again if people didn't do this sort of thing we would be a very isolated world, people dared once to sail off the edge of the earth to see what would happen

As far as i know NASA have nothing to do with this scam.

They should send a rag delegation as the swamp is a dusty, dirty, red planet, devoid of Intelligent life, they wouldn't feel homesick and if the mission failed the loss would be inconsequential.

No brainer for me.

Why is it a scam?

Sorry, my mistake, although NASA does have the same stated aim and will likewise not be able to return anyone back to Earth.

Its funny that with all the technological advances we have that Mars will still be a one way trip

We have had a lot of technological advances, but our Engines are still severely lacking.

how long will it take for a manned spaceship to get to mars?

I'd go tbh.

I think its more to do with what the human body can take and fuel rather than the delivery systems. We have scramjets that can Mach5 in earths gravity, Human body just cannot take that sort of punishment

Not for sending things piecemeal and establishing a colony. We lack the ability to bring people back from Mars because we can't send anything heavy enough to generate enough thrust to propel itself off the surface of Mars and back to Earth, but sending things to Mars and leaving it there, we can do that already as we already do. There are other issues to be resolved but sending men to Mars and leaving there, we can do that.

NASA say twenty years. Or do you mean how long, as in how long will the astronauts be travelling?
