Mars One

<< < (2/2)

Peter:
The space race makes me wonder at what point manned exploration is better then unmanned exploration. Determined in price/benefit. Humans would more usable. But unmanned would be cheaper. For example I don't think the Apollo project achieved much more then the unmanned Luna project from russia which costs quite a bit less. (not to confused with the actual manned flight that got canceled after the USA got on the moon first)

Because of distance the lag in space mining near earth objects would only be a few seconds of something(based one the moon with just 1,26 seconds) With the load of NEOs I can't imagine space mining would need a remote base anytime soon.

Botsareus:
It is just an epic moment when a person steps foot on a different satellite, not to mention that mars is a solar satellite not a terrestrial one.
