Turn the lottery to find someone who will take it to Mars permanently

Recently, a 35-year-old Dutch businessman had the idea of ​​bringing people to live permanently on Mars.

Bas Lansdorp, the founder of Mars One, told FoxNews that his company is serious about the project of bringing people to Mars permanently. To find out who is 'lucky' for this mission, the company will organize a lottery shot around the world next year. 40 people will be selected for training at a desert base in the United States. In the end, the company will choose the 10 most deserving people for the "one go and no return" mission on the red planet.

'We will send people to Mars in 2023,' said Bas Lansdorp. 'They will live on it for the rest of their lives. We will prepare the necessary living environment for them and every 2 years and 4 people will be sent there. '

The habitat will consist of several homes that Mars One sends to Mars before 2030. In 2016, the company will send its first and 2018 supply ships, an exploration ship also heading for the Red Planet.

Bas Lansdorp said there were four companies that agreed to cooperate with the Mars One, but the company would have to find fuel and rocket suppliers. Most likely Mars One will have to use SpaceX's heavy Falcon missile, a type of rocket that takes the large spacecraft into space, in its project.

To seek funding, Lansdorp will partner with Paul Romer, co-founder and producer of the 'Big Brother' program , Dr. Gerard 't Hooft, who has won the Nobel Prize, and Brian Enke, specialist analyst. Research on space missions currently working at Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, to make a reality television show about the project.

Meanwhile, in 2010, NASA announced a similar plan by implementing the Hundred Years Starship project in cooperation with the Advanced Defense Research Projects Agency (DARPA), which announced the plan to deliver people who live on Mars as their second home.

With a better understanding of the weather and geography of Mars in recent years, trips to the planet are considered to be potential future homes of people in the future, which is quite safe and affordable. .
