More than 100,000 people are eager to make themselves at home on another planet. They've applied for a one-way trip to Mars, hoping to be chosen to spend the rest of their lives on uncharted territory, according to an organization planning the manned missions.

The Mars One project wants to colonize the red planet, beginning in 2022. There are financial and practical questions about this venture that haven't been clarified. Will there be enough money? Will people really be able to survive on Mars? But these haven't stopped some 30,000 Americans from signing up.

if the person of your dreams asked you to go to mars with them would you go?

    All 100, 000 of them probably hate their lives and were going to kill themselves anyway so figured they may as well try another planet.

    My initial thought is yes but then I came to my senses. It would be really amazing but way too much risk for little gain.
