    Some guy representing Mars One posted this on Reddit and was basically exposed as an idiot. They don't have any real viable plan to get to mars and are pretty much just hyping a project that they could never deliver on. Or that's what I gathered from what I read..

    Eventually we'll start going, but yeah this particular project doesn't inspire confidence.

    But here's the real question, if they were taking volunteers for the first group to go would you be interested? I sure as hell wouldn't, until some decent structures were built or teraforming begun it would be boring and dangerous.

    Yeah, with our present ability and tech, it would basically be a suicide mission.
