I knew we shouldn't have taken that left turn at Jupiter.

LMAO

What happens when the show is cancelled after 5 seasons?

Interstellar sex. Definately tops the "mile high club".

With 4 people a season sent up so that is 20 people on Mars.

Ohhhh.


I was thinking about the amount of money that will needed to keep a Mars colony sustained. :eek:

I'm only going when Taylor Swift goes then

Why? So you can bring some little girls with you for her to entertain?

Hopefully I'd figure out a way she could entertain me

Yeah you know supplies would be an extreme amount of money until they get vegetation growing. Assuming most things, if not all, would be powered through a type of kenetic energy solar and wind and probably even piezoelectric energy cells. Those things will be extreme expensive as well but once the initial setup is built and they get some vegetation growing the price would be insignificant. The science that is to be gained could even help to offset the initial costs.

This. The technological achievements necessary for this en devour to work would more than make up for the cost needed

It seems like the first step would be to send some setup that automatically starts growing vegetation. You do that, then you wait a couple of crop seasons, and then send the people.

But you need people to do the setup. Taylor & I will go!!!

I'm signing up Matt Cassel

AND Brady Quinn

Then Taylor & I aren't going :harumph:

I would imagine that if they are setting up a colony they would only want people who would be in their peak childbearing years. They would also want colonist that would live more than a couple decades. Imagine what kind of story the first children born on another planet would bring. I would think a moon colony would be more feasible due to proximity and economical considerations.
