One way trip to Mars.....

http://news.nationalgeographic.co.uk/news/2013/08/130813-mars-one-video-...

The Mars One team plans to pick 40 astronauts from the more than 100,000 applications received from people worldwide. The crew will spend eight years undergoing specialized training in an isolated location to learn skills like dental work and electrical maintenance. In 2022, four of them will be launched into space on a one-way trip to Mars—with more astronauts slated for future missions. (See: "Mars Gets Its Close-Up.")

Ok so am I the only one who didn't get the memo that the biggest event in the history of the human race is Taking place? Shit, I only found out about it by stumbling on the subject by accident.

What is you guys thoughts on this? Zero fucks given? Conspiracy theories? Game changer?
Let's hear em...

It would be cool to go down in history as the first known humans to explore Mars. But I can only imagine the toll knowing it is a fatal mission might put on you..

Perhaps it will unlock the true path of enlightenment and reveal the meaning of life, OR it could be really fuckin boring and suck to the point where you miss day time television.... either way I say we do this.

i saw that about England that hasn't happened in like 200 years! Awesome...

Obama stalled for another week...some of our military took to twitter and other social media outlets to oppose war with Syria! The "People" are waking up ! so hopefully the global Banksters wont have their way for once!

That is true. However as much I would love to take it as a win for the people, it seems more a case of the opposing political party stabbing David Cameron in the back at the last minute. As usual the struggle for power is at the forefront while the the nation's voice goes unheard.

That is crazy to hear some if the U.S military have hit the media voicing their concerns. I will be following what happens next...

Oscar Wilde once said "if you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you"

Glad you take my sarcastic nature the way that its intended brother (lighthearted) to alot of people it comes across plain rude and offensive or at times the joke is completely missed altogether.

Biggrin

Haha ;) yeah man i agree, it is quite the gathering up in Eroids. As for losing faith in humanity, it's easily done my friend. Finding solace and peace is such a good thing Mike, great to hear.

Awsome i can be a astronaut then! I new my karma would repay me some how!

But ye i never new about this. it sounds pretty awsome, not a game changer though because what are we going to find on mars? Nothing. But it is one step in the right direction

Living on another planet blows my tiny mind though. Eventually someone could actually be born on a planet that aint earth. Which opens up a million other questions.

However I do imagine the magical fairytale aspect will not last to long. In no time it will become about tax exempt status and drilling for minerals lol thats if that is not already the main reasons for going Biggrin
