So, /sci/, if you were given, right now, the opportunity to become a Mars colonist, would you accept it?

Wouldn't it be suicide with today's technology and public opinion of space exploration?

Do I get to see who doesn't go if I say yes?
if I don't, fuck yes I will
if I do, it depends entirely on whether the person is a more valid candidate for the mission than I am. If someone who's experienced and qualified can go up, then they should instead of me.

Shhhh don't try to bring reason into these threads.


Only way I'd go was if it wasn't capitalist. At least then there wouldn't be lazy fucks getting rich by doing nothing valuable on Mars too.

Fuck the sea floor, let's build a utopia ON MARS.

I am prepared already. Pic related.

I remember reading somewhere about someone suggesting inflateable martian habitats where pressure would be maintained by oxygen released from turning the iron oxide in the soil into iron. Would that be viable?

You're the person who got me into sci-fi. To think I would have never read I, robot without you.
