Actually serious question. Would you or would you not move to Mars if Elon Musk or NASA successfully founded a colony there in the next couple of decades?

Instantly, with my wife, surelly.Quote:

Hell no. Our bodies are built to live on earth. Simple things like a runny nose could kill you in space with the lack of gravity to drain it.
Im sure I will take one of those space rides when its all worked out though. I am very curious to feel how zero gravity compares to sky diving.
It seems as though the health risks are greater than I thought. Do you have some extra info on that, btw? I'd be very interested in reading about it as I know very little about how the human body reacts in space.
As for space rides, how soon do you think that will become viable?
It's ok for me to be 1st screenwriter on Mars. My wife is scientist, so she can do the real social science in martian experiment. Also we can dance salsa and bachata with low gravity... Well, no need to return :)Quote:

Still better then living in Russia!Quote:

Luckily for us, Helz is an expert with drilling and oil rigs so I think we are safe.
Yipikaye Motherfucker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Move to Mars. Become a self-sustained colony. Lead a revolution. Take over Earth with newly improved Martian tech. Enslave all Trump supporters.
Internet would be shit so no.
Here is one of my favorite channels that did a piece on the subject. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTL_sJycQAA (Or was before he stopped making real content) Covers quite a few issues on it although the sinus thing I mentioned I read somewhere else. Its kinda difficult for me to figure out how I know what I know most of the time.Quote:

I mean.. We don't feel gravity, we feel acceleration. The only reason we have a notion of gravity is because we are constantly accelerating towards the earth. When doing an accelerated free fall you hit terminal velocity and stop accelerating which makes me feel weightless.Quote:

I really wonder if there would be much of a difference at all in space.
Lol. I love you Superjack!Quote:

If there were other planets, possibly.
That will be hard to work from 2 continents, my budgets are not at Hollywood level :D Even after we won some festivals in LA :DQuote:
