Mars One Has 78,000 Applicants
An anonymous reader writes "Mars One reports that 78,000 people have volunteered for a one-way ticket to Mars. A quick calculation shows that this means people lined up coast-to-coast in a line with only 40cm per person! (As Robert Zubrin already predicted). If you want, you can still go and sign up (or sign up your worst enemy). Or you can just look at some videos of the would-be travelers."
You know my ex-husband too and his mistress?
What use would a third-party nomination be? It would essentially be volunteering someone to be exiled from Earth forever. The right to banish someone from Earth forever is not a right that is guaranteed in the Constitution.
They are Americans.
I hope the guy who did that calculation is not computing the path of the spacecraft.
For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word. That begs the question, "who cares"?
Just wondering. What percentage of those are Telephone hygienists?
They are Americans.
I know I don't know what I don't know.
I wasn't aware the Earth had a Constitution.
I'd pledge $5 to the "Send Snooki Home" kickstarter...
Log in or piss off.
It's a bigger pity that you don't know what the word "redundant" means.
He is an American.
"Frist setp!!"
