Exactly how to you get the spam out of the can, while posting it? Or do you post the entire container, somehow? Interesting.

What do folks here think of the planned mission? It's a one-way mission - so people going would know they'd never get back to earth. There will always be doubts as to whether they'd get to Mars alive, or if they do, whether they'd be able to stay alive for more than a few days. The idea sounds exciting, but I am not sure we are technologically at a point where we can make this feasible in a safe manner.

It's opt-in. They filtered the list down from 100s of 1000s from across the world to a final 100 from which it will be further filtered down to 24.

Their funeral, I guess. I wish them luck though, and plenty of sex. It would be sad to be stranded on a planet with 50 12 cold fish.

I wonder what gender ratio they are going for.

Two girls for every boy. 
Actually, 8 boys and 16 girls would work.

Sure. And, should they survive, we get our own version of Klingons in the future.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

More like Khan's than Klingons. We just have to send a virus before it gets that advanced.

Canada has been pushing forth a proposal to include Celine Dion and Bieber.

I don't think we should stop at just 2 Canadians.

Its ok I think the French Canadians get lumbered in with the French so will all be sent

It's very interesting on not just the technology level but the moral level to.
I'm just gutted I don't have a say on the final list.

Probably true, but the same can be said of just about every wave of human exploration and expansion across our planet.
In order to make an omelet - you have to break some eggs! 
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

That's true. These first few may end up going on what basically qualifies as suicide missions, but if it paves the path for future Mars colonization, it's a good thing in the long run.

Yeah, but at least they didn't have to deal with the vacuum of space, harsh radiation, limited resources (oxygen, for example) and their destination wasn't frigid and totally lacking water and food.
