I would have told them everything that was known as fully, honestly and openly as possible. The crew were all adults; all highly trained professionals who were aware of the risks involved and of the distinct possibility that they could die on the mission. They had each come to terms with that before liftoff and each made the decision to proceed. RIP.

The East Indian lady, Mrs. Chawla, had made comments well before her death, that if there would be a planned trip to Mars she would jump at the chance even if it was a one-way trip and death was assured.
