Craig Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 So, apparently there will be people on Mars by 2023. That's rather ambitious. http://www.sen.com/f...nt-on-mars.html Mars One, a Dutch company, is aiming to establish a permanent human settlement on the Red Planet. The mission, to be funded from the sale of broadcasting rights, would see the first 4 settlers arrive on Mars in 2023. />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4tgkyUBkbY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BigTfromNotts Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 "The mission, to be funded from the sale of broadcasting rights" Does this mean Big Brother on Mars?

Craig Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Well in this case it's not a US led endeavour, nor is it subject to US budgetary constraints. Perhaps that bodes well for such a mission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kheldar Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Chinese or Indian will be there first ... if private companies (which I believe are the future) are there first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 We all need to unite under a world space programme and we might make it. It's way to expensive for just one country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 We need to unite as a planet first ,before we even think about things like this /Thread As long as we're separated by religion, politics and borders, we'll never be what we've got the potential to be. We could achieve so much if we were united. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
