I don't want to live on Mars, I want to die on Mars.

I want to make that journey.

You get one life, and going to space, nevermind Mars, is something that so few humans throughout history have ever done, I just don't understand people who would say no to that.

Like, you could get hit by a bus, or get in a car accident, or get cancer even without the space travel. It's not like you're guaranteed safety by living a boring life.

    I want to die on Mars.

    Ideally not on impact!

    I want to live out my later years somewhere with low gravity (Orbit? Moon? Mars?) so I don't have to care about bad joints. I miiiight need to make a lot more money for that to happen in the next 40-50 years or so...

    Here’s why I don’t want to live on mars:

    Limited supply of pizza rolls.

    Earth has a limited supply of pizza rolls.

    The ingredients to make pizza rolls can be renewed much easier on Earth than on Mars.

    Hmm I guess it depends on your definition of unlimited.

    Heat itself is limited and one day at the end of eons, the entire universe will come to an absolute halt with total and complete stillness of all that is forevermore. At least materially.

    I have to say, this episode was hard to listen to. They all seem to constantly scream and the actual information content was interesting, but something like 5min.

    They did not come of as screaming to me. There were certainly moments that they got excited, but i don't think it was overdone. Also keep in mind it is a comedy and informational podcast, so not meant to be educational the whole time.

    My friends are not on Mars. There is no internet on Mars. There is no entertainment on Mars.

    etc...etc...

    We have been hopelessly, almost maliciously, misled by popular science fiction about the adaptability of humans to space travel and living on planets which are not exactly like Earth.
