I'm over 70 - which means that I was alive for sputnik, the dog, Gagarin, all the Apollo missions and everything else.
Even though I would probably be dead before I got there, I would volunteer in HALF a heartbeat.
Imagine going down in history as the first man to be "buried" in space...
The first man to fall into the sun...
I was either born 700 years too early - or 700 years too late...

How come no one ever mentions that going to Mars would be a One way Trip?
The first people who arrive won't be coming back especially if something goes wrong.

Do they mention this to people who apply for the job?

[Chris-fjq]

Mars 1st landing has to be 2missions establish base AND plant and maintain oxygen bio sphere . in 1 trip .

"I'd like to go back to the Moon, but unfortunately that's probably not in the cards for me.". ~Back~ to the Moon????

[lestermarshall]

I agree with Elon. We need people to on Mars to ensure that we aren't totally wiped out by an asteroid hitting earth or some other disaster.

[dustensmith]

No i wouldn't go to mars if i had the chance.

[MNGirl]

Mike, I love your Youtube channel and especially your talks with Mom. She is phenomenal and keeps me laughing. As a kid i wanted to go to Space Camp but couldnt afford it growing up. As an adult, they have Space Camp for Adults and Im gonna do it 🌎 🚀 !!! Yes id go to Mars 😊😊

[frederickknapp]

I'm almost 60 and would go to Mars in a split second. Don't have the training or health for it but would go and take the risk. Maybe go and be the coffee man.

[kayumust]

this just screams for an episode of dirty jobs in space !, now make it happen ! hehe

[Ackermanmedia]

Mike we had the same childhood, down to the gentle grandfather and large piece of property where we were allowed to figure crap out. haha...You are incredibly inspirational and your contributions to making the world a better place doesn't go unnoticed. Keep doing what you do, its making a difference for sure!! Someday I will interview you on my podcast. Wait and see!! I will too make a difference in the name of my grandfather and grandmother. Love what you stand for.

The right stuff is plural. A willingness to go is a prerequisite, but it isn't that rare. I would go to Mars. Nobody's going to ask me though. Being kind, I'll just say I'm too old and under educated. Also, everyone needs to quit worrying about everything going to hell in a hand basket. That feeling is what keeps us working to be a little better. Meanwhile, by most objective measures humanity is doing better than we ever have. Still a violent ugly mess, lets work a little harder.

Spinning Space toilet, create artificial gravity just for pooping.

[lilorbielilorbie]

I have no desire to go to Mars. But by golly there are some folks that I would like to send there.

[thaisstone]

Of course, it takes a person with a certain type of courage to do this. I personally feel there are plenty of people with the passion and drive to break a barrier of this magnitude.

[friendlyone]

As a grandmother with competent children and thriving grandkids, I think one of the best gifts I can give my grandchildren is the opportunity to visit my Martian grave. I would be proud to make that one way trip to help establish a Martian colony, to help make us a truly interplanetary society.

[daniellevaccaro]

Going to Mars was something I always dreamed of as a kid up into my 20’s even knowing it could be a “one way trip” until I became a mom of twins. I don’t think even a trip to Mars could take me away from my children.

[movtipsislee]

Hi Mike 🫶🏼🙋‍♀️, An No I wouldn't Venture there if I didn't have to 😅

[TruckingToPlease]

Mars is a one way trip. Just on an anatomical level.

Brine = effluence

[bookworm]

I havnt watched this yet, but yes. Now ask if my wife would go... 😂😂

[kevinkerr]

Being the first human to die on Mars is an interesting notion.
