If you could take a girl or two with you..I'd be in...To die on a hot planet with no sex would be torture.
- Mars is much colder than Earth. Mars is further from the sun. True story.ETM
- And a COOL story at that, bro.CygnusZero4
- Bitch, that tale is ice cold.ETM
- that wasn't the important part, really.dbloc
- dbloc i concur.ohhhhhsnap

How do they even know how to land people on Mars? What, the same way they land rover, by putting them inside a giant bouncing superball? That should work out well.
Seems like there is a monumental amount of testing and experimenting that would need to be done. I doubt it will happen.
- the positivity is weak with this one.albums
- Same was said before the moon landing.ETM
- Yeah and they ran tests for 10 years, and that was a little easier than going to Mars.CygnusZero4
- So they should just not try? We'd be real far if people only ever tried the easy stuff.ETM
- I didnt say that, but without government money, how can they possibly pull this off?CygnusZero4

What happens when someone gets sick and needs surgery? Just kick him out the door to die I guess, total recall style.
- ETM0
Humans colonized lands and continents and I am sure many people said the same things. People will get sick, people will die. It will be dangerous. It will further mankind, should they do it. Brave people will risk their lives for adventure or progress, cowards will criticize.
- what can i do other than < & +1?albums
- Im not saying it shouldnt be done, just dont know if its realistic they way they're doing it, thats all.CygnusZero4
- They're going to need many billions, trillions possibly?CygnusZero4
- Calling Richard Branson. We need you and the league of the Super Rich to help.ETM
- Gonna need someone with a lot more money than him.CygnusZero4

- Branson's the wrong guy totally - he just brands other people's successes for marketing monies.detritus
- He's no GoogleBros, watever.detritus
- I said AND the league of super rich. Not him alone.ETM

scam.
not possible for humans to make it to mars. kidneys stones and other crap.
- clearThoughts0
Funny that "money" – something we created ourselves – could be a barrier for humans to go to Mars.

I am always surprised that a forum of creative's always have so little imagination.

The Apollo program costed somewhere roughly around 25 billion.
They plan to do this without government money. Think about all the designing that needs to be done, then all the test launches, fixing shit that didnt work, test it again, then all the launches to get shit there, then slow ass robots have to build this stuff? Do we even have robots that can do that?
It's such a monumental undertaking, far beyond landing on the moon, in about 10 years. This would be extremely difficult even if the US were to try and do this. Then you get into all the shit about people getting sick and everything else for the people living there.
- costed?monospaced
- In fact didnt NASA say they didnt think it was possible to do this before 2030-40?CygnusZero4
- costed: past participle, past tense of cost (Verb)albums
- It's an irregular verb, costed is not the past tense of cost. Cost is.monospaced
- language arts teacher says she wouldn't mark it incorrect. I give it to the woman holding a mastersalbums
- you win this round mono, i asked if costed was a word via text earlier but called and discussed usage. WRONGalbums

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise a kid; In fact, it's cold as hell. I'm a rocket man!
- ETM0
Geez, many said it was too expensive for private industry to launch space rockets and capsules... yet we have it.
- CygnusZero40
Launching private rockets I think is a little different than building a habitat on Mars.
- It's not even known how to land people on it yet! We already knew how to launch rockets. lolCygnusZero4
- Tee point is... many said it wouldn't happen. It was too expensive etc etc.ETM
