Would You Take A One Way Trip To Mars?

[DJEvelEd]

Well, would you? <font style="font-size: 9px" face="Verdana">quote: </font><strong>The next choice that NASA makes in planning a mission is whether it will be one-way or round trip. There are two reasons why we might want the mission to return: One is that it would be nice to have a Mars mission return to Earth with samples of the Martian &ldquo;soil.&rdquo; A second reason for a round-trip is to bring people back. The first time we send people to Mars, we will probably want them to return to Earth. (send people to build a colony and make the return trip only when they are able to produce their own fuel on Mars.) As of November 2003, all the trips to other planets have been one-way. Why? It turns out that it is a lot more expensive and many times more complicated to have a round-trip mission rather than simply a one-way mission. The reason should be fairly obvious. A spacecraft on Mars needs to have fuel to take off and return to Earth. Since the fuel sitting on Mars has to come from Earth, it takes a lot of fuel and a large, expensive rocket to send the fuel to Mars for the return trip back to Earth. </strong><p><a href="http://www.polaris.iastate.edu/EveningStar/Unit7/unit7_sub2.htm" target="blank">One Way Trip To Mars</a> </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I would if I was old and all my family was dead.

Only if it includes a trip to the Pyramid Mines and a stay at The Last Resort in Venusville with Melina.

<br /><font face="Verdana">Venus' surface temperature is 900 &deg;F (</font>http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2000/GeorgeRyabov.shtml)<p>The Ladies can have Venus. Mars is about 40 in the daytime. <br />
</p><p>&nbsp;</p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 9px;">quote:</font>The atmosphere on Venus is comprised
mostly of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and a small percentage of the atmosphere
is nitrogen. Venus has many clouds, which are made up of high concentrations of
sulfuric acid.<p>&nbsp;</p><p>Which explains some of the women I've dated. <br />

<p>&nbsp;</p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 9px;">quote:</font>The atmospheric pressure on Venus is 90 times greater than that of the Earth.
The surface of Venus is very mountainous and has many volcanoes, some of which
are higher then Mt. Everest. The gravity on Venus is similar to that of Earth
but the mass of the atmosphere would crush a person and the air on Venus is unbreathable.<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>A suffocating atmosphere that will crush the life out of a human? Again, sounds like some of the women I've dated. </p>
