Does anyone have any desire whatsoever to live on Mars ?

[LaurieFairyCake]

I really, really don’t. I have no interest in even going into space never mind travelling to another planet.

Right now, very low class numbers. Great time to get your kid enrolled.

Nope. The thought of living out my days with the likes of Musk and Trump and Bezos about chills me to the bone. Be great if we could send them up there via a one way ticket though...

I would perhaps visit the planet if we were much more technologically advanced. A spaceship as safe as the ones in startrek would be needed. In reality I would definitely not go. It takes many months to get there and what if something happens to your ship whilst you are there and you are stuck for a long time?

I’d love to see humans go to mars in mg lifetime. Not necessarily live there but have a walk around. It would be amazing

I can’t think of anything more depressing or terrifying than living on Mars. To me, anyone who is volunteering themselves to live up there is at best a narcissist and at worst a psychopath

I just know, first and foremost, that I would not sleep very well there.

His name was Elon
He was a mogul
With yellow transplants in his hair
And a dress cut down to there

No way! I love living in our London suburb near the beautiful river, with cafés, shops, people, etc.

Nooo - I wouldn't want my eyes to pop out like Arnie on Total Recall. I'd rather try and survive a Zombie attack than go to Mars. I've clearly watched too many films.

Are you mad ?

Come to Swindon. Popping out eyes or zombie attack are actual choices here 😆

Total Recall is an awesome film, really a complete headfuck. Is Swindon truly like that? I've never been there.

Not in reality.

Yes in the USS Enterprise.

It's in the USS Enterprise?

I have completely re-evaluated my world view these last few minutes.

It is. We have 3 boobed women here, and people with strange limbs 😉

That is Star Trek though... in the far future when everything is nice anyway.

No thanks. Or the moon, or under the sea. I like this blue planets terra firma.

Your tourist board needs to up its game. Imagine the selfies!

There isn't anything there . There isn't even a Waitrose there . Where would us Mumsnetters get our naice ham? Do they even the internet up there ? Can guinea pigs live there?

And Cadbury’s Astros.

No MIL up there though... unless she insists on also going.

I would if Matt Damon needed help repopulating the planet 😜

@CtrlAltDltThe journey would be in The Enterprose; not the planet!

@XenoBitchHence my preference!

Yeah! I’d go up there with Matt Damon definitely and would eat potatoes and listen to disco music between the games of twister. Count me in for that.
