Unfortunately, I've spent the past few years studying a ton about manned missions to Mars and how that could be accomplished... and many reading this thread will be dead before that happens.

Not Matt Damon please - we can't afford yet another rescue mission!


There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable.
