Default One Way trip to mars?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_one_way_to_mars

For those too lazy to click on that link: scientists want people to be like the explorers of north america, knowing they would never return home. going up to help build colony's and make the planet livable.

Greeting Starfighter, you have been recruited by the Starleague to defend the frontier against Zurr and the Codan armada.

It's too expensive, unless multiple countries put their money in a pile - there's no race to Mars, so politically it'd be suicide. More science is also required on the surface of Mars before you can risk sending anyone. I'm all for NASA and ISA making a push for exploring further into the vacuum, but it's just not conceivable with current world dilemmas.

Had you asked me when I was 20, sure. Two kids later...no chance in hell.

I would get on the rocket now without telling my family or packing clean undies if that's what it took.

^^^^ This. Hell yes, 15 years ago. Hell no, now with 3 kids. If I could bring my entire family, maybe.

Give a few years and those people with kids will be elbowing grannies in the face to get a seat.

Are we talking Mars with the triple-breasted chick from Total Recall, or without?
