4 people will spend a year in NASA Mars sim

[AlxavierCooper]

People really trying to recreate 1000 ways to die

[Nott_Vermeen]

These folks were like “Screw this if I can’t be on another planet, I’ll pretend I am. Close the damn door, I’ll be back in four years.”

[amandah]

It would be really interesting to see the results of the psychological tests before and after this simulation.

[johnkavic]

The real bullshit part is their only getting paid $10 an hour

[ssjteenGohan]

NASA is really trying to recreate Zero Escape games

[mervynlarrier]

I mean, this isn't a bunch of rich buffoons making a long series of poor decisions. This is a science experiment.

[ADDAmerican]

So they just volunteered for solitary confinement for a year with eachother? I hope theyre all good friends

[DenaRicketts]

Bonus points for the use of the word plethora. It's one of my favorite words. ❤

[FedUpVet]

It's going to end up being a real-life game of clue. It will be the astronaut in the habitat with a laptop. 😂😂😂😂

[lisabarnes]

Ig they're related to hamsters; dying in the most absurd way possible.

[cheese]

Imagine when they come out they’ll have to update their vocabulary to fit modern standards to avoid being canceled

[ShiKageMaru]

"Is it something in the air?" From the East Coast, yeah.

[stevenhetzel]

There's absolutely no way they allow anyone to die in this experiment. The public backlash would set them back years. You simply cannot compare this to smug dipshit rich folks who feel invincible.
A rare miss from Fredo

As an introvert with nothing to lose but the pain of life: I see this as an absolute win!

[kathrynmyrick]

Okay but imagine you had a really crappy life and you can just escape it for a year. You get to come back after a year with no repercussions in your personal life and you get paid for doing it, with free lodging and food for a year. You just get to take a long break from your regular life to sit and think about what you’re doing and if this is what you really want from life. I think some people could benefit from that.

[Enolagallardo]

They are not trying to find ways to die they are trying to find a new place to live something's going on Earth that they're trying to get away from before it all happens

[Lenisakey]

This was already done by Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin in 1996, the movie was called Bio-Dome😂

[col.cottonhill]

Who has so little going on in their life they would spend a whole year locked in a room ?

[teddyama]

It's just bad marketing. Ain't no way they did this after BARELY getting past the submarine incident.

[Slappyhappy-cn]

Omg they are making a live version of the Pauly Shore classic “Biodome”
