Let's say that you booked a flight to Mars. I read that some people are doing that. When you arrived there you went for stroll and you found a house stocked with all kinds of food, water and other things that would help you to survive. What conclusion would you draw about the house and how it came to be?
Mars One will establish the first human settlement on Mars. Mars One invites you to join us in this next giant leap for humankind!

I prefer to stay on earth with my friends, family, and pets and all my favorite restaurants and shops. No interest.

So you have no interest in space travel and I was going to suggest that they contact you. I'm so disappointed!

@DianneN Instead of walking on the beach, you could actually walk in space. Imagine the thrill?

I wouldn't like it cause it would be desert like. I'm sick of not having trees near me.

Yes, as far as we can see there are no plants of any kind there. Lots of sand to build sand castles or homes made of sand. I love the earth!

@sallypup Don't forget to bring water as there doesn't seem to be much if any there.

@1hopefulman Building sand castles on Mars does sound like a wonderful adventure.

I do not are to go to Mars, I prefer to stay on earth even if it is no more the ideal place where to live. I love the nature here and the animals that populate our planet. I am not at all interested to go there.

I don't blame you as there won't be much to do there especially if there is no water. Enjoy the beautiful planet that we have.

@1hopefulman Instead of going around to find another planet, we should start to take care of what we have.

@LadyDuck That would make more sense but there's not much common sense on earth. I hope they have a lot of it on Mars and they could bring some back.

I guess I'd think scientifically and look for the dome.

I am not sure I would want to go to Mars, it might be good for some but it would take some time to get there and I am getting too old for that sort of trip. My son would probably be the one to head for Mars, build a house and stay there.

Logic would make us think that! If there was a house there that had everything we need to survive, might it not mean that somebody expected our arrival and wanted to make sure we would be looked after with necessities and comforts? Also that somebody cared about us? It's what I would think!

@1hopefulman I've always loved the idea of traveling in space. As a kid I wanted to be an astronaut. That didn't happen, not even come close as my science grades were nearly as bad as my math grades. However, I've loved everything about the space program, and watch shows about it. One of the last shows about Mars I watched was called Mars on the Nat Geo channel. It was about a mission to Mars, and living there, and the problems associated with doing so. I find the idea fascinating, and worth exploring - literally. If I could be on a team of explorers going to Mars, I would be the first to sign up for it. I know that's not possible, so I'll just write my stories about the possibilities. I do write Science Fiction and have a couple stories related to other planets and life there - though that life originated from Earth and not the far reaches of the galaxies.

I have heard about the flight to Mars. I wouldn't want to go. But I would think that the government probably set that house up.

That is a possibility! Now think of this? The earth is like a home. Everything we need, such food, clothing, etc was on earth long before we appeared. Who prepared things for our arrival?
