Yes, but I wonder who else submitted a bid and what was NASA's assessment.

100 people to Mars in starship yes or no? Some back of napkin drawings I have done seem to indicate you could give everyone a sleeping pod in four decks, 2m high each, leaving room for THE SHAFT, 300mm of foam insulation around the outside shell, 100mm foam sandwich pod walls and 200mm SHAFT walls to contain the water tanks and act as a storm shelter. I think the real problem is going to be the life support. Can you carry enough enough carbon scrubbing material for 100 people for 6 months? Water will be fine, easy enough to recycle piss and greywater. Food less easy, not sure how much you would have to bring per person but you could reduce it by 2/3 by having your colonists on a 72/1 fasting schedule and packing on a few kilos before they go.

The only reason you'd have for being this autistically obsessed with denying reality is if you yourself are a leftist opposed to human space exploration.
