Mars One Colony now accepting applications
« on: April 22, 2013, 07:12:01 pm »
I just saw this on Ars Technica

http://arstechnica.com/science/2013/04/applications-open-for-mars-one-the-first-human-space-colony/

They are shooting for an unmanned presence by 2016, and a functioning colony by 2023.

I wonder if they accept senior citizens... some of us may be around that age by then!

I plan on bringing some seeds for barley and hops, and open the first brewpub on Mars
