Nasa unveils bold plans to send humans 'one-way to Mars to colonise planet'

They are jumping ship, I suppose now would be as good as time as any for them.

The Brits did it with Australia, so I think Mars would make a great prison colony...don't you?

Question is, would you volunteer?

Yeah you go down in history, but that could be as the person who tried to get to Mars and did'nt make it. Im sure they'd have some parade for you but that wont bring you back from the dead.

I suppose if you did make it. You could declare yourself King or Queen of mars untill the others arived. The boredom and sense of isolation would probably send you mad though. Theres only so many martian sand castles you could build. Although there would be plenty of space to play some baseball or whatever.

The question is - has this already happened? Are their people already on Mars. I wouldnt be surprised!

If google is involved I fear this may be another hoax. For those who remember April fools 2008 or 2009 virgin mobile ang google did the same thing and got people to make video's on why they should be selected.
Alot of work went into making that hoax seem real, hopefully this isn't the same.
I'm just skeptical about google... Seems odd

it as called Virgil pioneer

it was leaked recently by the NASA head, but the program is being funded by DARPA. link below
