"One small step for man. One giant leap for mankind." ~Neil Armstrong
Home page Mars One website states that "It is the mission Objective of Mars One to establish a human colony on the planet Mars in 2023. According to Mars One, we will accomplish this through the integration of existing technologies developed by aerospace corporations who have demonstrated expertise in space travel. Mars One explains that:
"During 2011, founders Bas and Arno laid the foundation for the Mars One Mission Plan through the creation of technical documentation, from astronaut selection through the first human landing. The primary providers of the complex infrastructure were engaged, top-tier aerospace suppliers from around the world enthused to work with an apolitical integrator whose intent is to conduct a manned mission to Mars."

The most interesting questions that this site poses is "Will you go?" and "Why?"
I find this topic intriguing because as a kid, I have had many ideas as to "will I ever go to Mars and live there?" Another question is "What would the public think?" I believe that the public's opinion would be scary, but I would like to find out.
