If you were offered a spot in the first colony going to Mars, would you take it? And, what would that be like? Months aboard a starship with dozens of other people, so far from Earth that there would be nothing but stars in the sky. What would it be like setting up domes to live in on a planet with a toxic atmosphere? Your trips outside would be in a spacesuit. Every single thing you did would be a first for humankind. What would you find on Mars? Would you find evidence of a previous civilization? Artifacts a million years old? If you were offered the chance to go, would you?
