BillF Posted February 11, 2015 Author Report Posted February 11, 2015 For our national contribution to this team, I'm putting forward Richard Branson and Boris Johnson. Have you any candidates? Quote
erwbol Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 For our national contribution to this team, I'm putting forward Richard Branson and Boris Johnson. Have you any candidates? Surely strap David Cameron to the concrete underneath the lift-off rocket's exhaust? Quote

A Lark Ascending Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 I think we should all club together and buy David Bowie a ticket so he can finally put to rest that question that has been bothering him for so long. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 Him and Lou Reed both, I'll bet.... Quote
Leeway Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 I suppose the Mars mission is going to require, um, certain "population efforts" by the colonizers. That is a long space ride. Quote
BillF Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Posted February 17, 2015 Damn! Branson and Boris passed over! http://www.theguardian.com/science/2015/feb/16/five-britons-among-100-would-be-astronauts-shortlisted-for-mars-mission Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted February 17, 2015 Report Posted February 17, 2015 Strikes me as an ideal destination for those keen on tax avoidance. Doubt if the inland revenue is keeping an eye on Mars. Quote
