    I'm a sci-fi, space geek. I'd go in a second!

    This. lol. Wait, do I get my own spaceship to go out in? Or is it like retirement living...once you're on the compound, you're stuck...see, I'd have to think that over...lol

    It would help speed up weight loss because you would instantly weigh around just one third of your weight.

    To explore a new frontier where John Crater lived? Of course I would go.

    Yes. Yes yes yes yes YES.

    And I wouldn't need the person of my dreams to do it. Even if the mission is a failure, the fact that humanity TRIED it would be a damn worthy thing to be a part of.

    How can I eat paleo on Mars?

    Is there a Martian diet book and exercise DVD I need to purchase?

    I'd go without them.

    Edited to add: Also, I've always wanted to be Deanna Troi. So call me Counselor Casta. :)

    "Yes you can eat that there"

    and

    "To Serve Man" is the book that's required

    Assuming my kids were grown, yes, yes I would. You wouldn't even have to pay me, I'd volunteer!

    I've considered the question of whether I would go colonize the moon/Mars very seriously. Yes, yes I would.

    But, Binary, our mass would be the same.

    I have mixed feelings. Where as, that would be awesome and people *should* do this, I'm a little too chicken to say I'm the one for the job. I'd rather figure out how to create ways for the food to be grown for the colonists or some sort of the tech side of it. Besides, my husband and I already had this conversation and he wouldn't want to go. So, there you are. Wouldn't want to go without my pookie.
