Mission to Mars! Would You? Could You?
)
October 5th, 2010
1000 square feet of space craft. 6 months to get there, 6 months return, 1.5 years of setting up base camp on the surface… 2.5 years away from family, friends, drive up fast food windows…
Could you?
You’re making this trip with three other strangers, highly trained, intelligent, specialized people. You’ll probably have to screw one of them in zero gravity just to fulfill NASA’s list of experiments.
Would you?
Upon your return, you get 10 million dollars, a book deal, and an honorary seat on the board of directors for the fortune 500 company of your choice. All you have to do is spend 2.5 years in a cold hollow metal tube, set up a flag, and press a few buttons… Anne Frank did it. Prisoners spend decades in small spaces too… Could you, as a hero of Earth, could you?
If so, how would it change you?
