100,000 people want to live in these space habitats on Mars — for eternity.

Is Ponce de Leon on the list?

I thought he found what he was looking for...

So, where does Mr. de Leon live today?

Honestly, I can’t see this colony ending well.

I think that they need to do the following mental health test for applicants:

If you apply, you’re disqualified on the grounds that you have a mental disorder.

“”You can be the best, smartest individual, but if you cannot work within your group you are out,” he said. “

I think we’ve all met this person in our lives, especially at work. Anyone read or skimmed a book from one of those person manning the science dome in Antartica (it was the lady who suffered a life-threatening condition and had to be evac’d by plane), it will give you a glimpse of what happens where you are isolated from a population for 6 months.

I probably should expand on my premise.

There should be a nomination process, and only I get to make the nominations. Then, I'll send those I nominate to Mars. For Life. hee hee hee.

I'll gladly take input from my fellow FReepers.

“If you apply, you’re disqualified on the grounds that you have a mental disorder.”

Are they going to transport Lego blocks to Mars?

Derek Zoolander: What is this? [smashes model] A center for ants?
Mugatu: What?
Derek Zoolander: How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read... if they can't even fit inside the building?
Mugatu: Derek, this is just a small...
Derek Zoolander: I don't wanna hear your excuses! The building has to be at least... three times bigger than this!

I don’t think women can go to Mars. They wouldn’t understand it.
