So basically, it's going to be a never ending Reality Tv show?

I always knew Junky was a bit fruit 😉

It'll end if a major component fails, if somebody goes postal with a massive spanner or if one of them doesn't close the door properly.

I've seen Sunshine - this won't end well, one of them will find God, go nuts and kill all the others.....

It does have a certain temptation, I agree.....although the Mars branch of UKIP will be waiting to send everyone back home again.

I drove 62 miles once to start a new life.

That ^^ mileage is a tad too far for me.. and I'm happy with this one I have.

Roman Mars (suitable surname) made a nice wee podcast about the notion of a one-way mission and the ethics of doing one-way suicide missions to mars in our lifetime or waiting several generations until its credible to make a return trip

A better idea would be a public vote for who we send to Mars. I'll put Gideons name forward for starters......

I second Gideon. And that means I'm definitely not going.

I propose Piers Moron

DD,

You, The Yeti, Phil and Jamie would make the perfect crew.

I've signed you all up.
