Saw this story. Sounds interesting. I wonder if anyone goes crazy and slowly kills all the others horror movie style? My money is on the middle bald guy in the crew picture.
520 day Mars mission experiment starts in Russia
- Thread starter Docbrown777
- Start date
In formerly Soviet Russia, Mars lands on you!
The only way I'd agree to tolerate that is if it earned me a free ride on a Soyuz flight afterward. I think I could do it, but why would I want to without some incentive (bettering mankind's understanding of long term isolation during spaceflight doesn't cut it for me)? I want to go into space, dammit!

It would depend on who I was doing this with, and I'd want a ride in space.
Someone is going to die in this crazy experiment.
Pretty cool idea.
Hm, maybe. I'd keep my eye on the guy behind and to the left of him, though...

The guy in the middle row by himself.. he has the psychotic killer look; besides it is obvious he is quiet and keeps to himself. That is the profile of every murderer.
520 days... all men. Someone is going to get so owned.

They should take a look at Japanese culture, where city dwellers have to spend their whole lives tolerating severe overcrowding, living in very confined spaces, and surrounded by technology rather than nature.
The solution is Plinko machines, but I'm not sure how well they work in zero gravity :/

I saw this article earlier today and it is an exciting beginning. Of course it is in a gravity situation, but I guess there is some idea of long term effects from the space missions done so far in that respect. I am hoping that this does herald a start on a Mars mission in the next ten or twenty years. With robotics and computer tech forging ahead, I would like to find out if work is being done to use robots to go ahead and start building initial habitats/labs for short term duration on Mars that the crews could use on arrival.
Yeah.. this seems much less "science experiment" and much more "gay porn plot" to me.
Sounds like Biosphere 2 to me.
