Volunteer? I'm certain MANY people would want to be the first person on Mars...or even the first colonist. To explore, to take a challange, to make history, to do something that is litterally "out of this world" will attract MANY people.

Heck, even I would volunteer. Though, given my last chemistry grades...I don't think I'm qualified. ;-)

I think the part of what the "hard to find qualified people to go" means is that going may be almost suicidal, and since suicidal tendancies may qualify as mental illness, that would automatically mean you're NOT qualified, via the mental illness. Make sense? It's a Catch-22 thing.
