    Yes, but their wouldn't be much choice, and even less choice for any potential offspring.

    And now this experiment has a test worth the trip. Can you have sex on Mars?

    (Possibly) 40 person orgies on Mars. Who's down?

    I call dibs.

    Am I the only one who thinks this sentence was absolutely hilarious?

    I don't know how to properly spell terrorforming, so I spelled how it is pronounced.
    If that wasn't sarcasm than terrorforming is when you make a planet habitable for life. We would give mars have animals and plants to live on it, oxygen atmosphere etc.

    Sorry accent.


    If this company does go through with living on mars, than I imagine more would follow. Like other companies, governments, etc. Perhaps they would do the same for the Moon as well.

    You seen Moon? You should watch it. That's how that goes.

    They are making a massive media campaign out of this and have already secured tons of private donations. Everything from the selection of the people to the trip, to monitoring the people there is gonna be broadcasted globally. They also have secured the space ships needed from a private American space organization. Did you even read anything on their site? They got most of it planned out. Selection of the people starts in 2013 and the sending of the craft with the stuff needed and rovers to search for a good spot starts in 2016.
    See above^
    If people want to do it (and there always are people who do), then that's fine by me.
    You didn't read their site did you?

    I think I prefer my theory. It's much more exciting.

    Yeah, but Im trying to keep it realistic and prevent this topic from succumbing to the plague that legends call "Derail"

    Accent. Sorry for my grammatical errors, I need to work on it. At least I know what a period and a capital letter is.

    Media is all fine and well but to what end, WHY are they doing this. I doubt they are going to pay for space travel by showing a mars-men take a shit on television.

    i don't know, i mean, if Doom 3's taught us anything, Mars is bad news, man.

    on a side note, you'd probably have to hold me back from seceding from whatever corporate entity or nation controls Mars and forming an independent Martian nation.

    OK I was actually talking about normal sexual production to see if it is really same to have sex on Mars and have children. We can save the orgies for when porn industries become interested in colonizing Mars. They can make their own Utopia and they can call it "Boobieville" or "PlanetPlayboy" or something similar.

    Why would sex be more difficult on mars? I can't think of a reason besides less gravity, but that seams it would AID not a con.

    I personally might see it as a difficulty, but we can only find out if they actually try, and generally I was only talking about massive orgies.
