Earnshaw has a boyfriend, but says the relationship operates within “the understanding that for me the Mars Mission is what I want to do and if I do end up getting through to the final groups, then we’re going to go our separate ways and that’s something we’re both okay with”.

Many years ago, I hike for a week on the Appalachian Trail. Along the way, there were shelter buildings, and diary books. From the diary entries, we could tell we were a day behind a man and his daughter, who were spending the entire summer on the trail. One of my leaders said that the daughter must either be real good looking or a daaaaawg!

First thing I thought of with this story...

Then I clicked the link....and made a determination.

I encourage you to look at those who are being considered. This is the second leftist that has been announced for this mission. The other person I read about was a Democrat opposition research staff person.

I mean, I'm all for sending leftists on a one-way trip to Mars, but I'd like to know who is doing the selecting and why.

At this point I just don’t see any long term survivablity there. The highly alkaline soil alone is something that needs to be overcome before anything could be grown in it.

All these people who want to go to Mars on a one way trip remind me of a phrase that has brought nothing but heartache and regret for generations. And that is...

“Here, hold my beer, watch this.”

In fact it’s cold as hell.
And there’s no one there to raise them, if you did.

LOL, reminds me of Married With Children when Jefferson and Marcie (after she got her hair cut):

JEFF (TO PROSPECTOR) I don’t know, Ol’ Timer. This nugget doesn’t look like it’s worth that much. (HIS HAND STARTS SHAKING) How many more are there up there like this?

PROS Enought to keep you and your little fella (INDICATES MARCY) in baseball cards for the rest of his life.

(THE PROSPECTOR TOSSLES MARCY’S HAIR)

MARCY Get your lice infested hands off me, Festus. I’m his wife.

PROS Oh. Well, if I’m gonna go to the city, I guess I better get liberal.
