Would you like to join a one-way flight to Mars?

Asked by GeorgeGee (4930points) October 25th, 2010

NASA is planning a one-way trip to Mars. It will take 100 years to get there. So the idea would be that you live on the ship, have kids on the ship, die on the ship, and your kids and grandkids form a permanent settlement when they get here. Would you volunteer for this? What kind of people do you think would?
