I can make a list of those I want strapped to the front of the probe.  Keith Vaz, Putin, Boris Johnson and Donald Trump for a start

Even when I applied I was half expecting something like this to happen, the Mars One venture has gone bankrupt.

It does appear that I may have been part of a much smaller group of maniacs adventurers who signed up though...  rubschin:

Shame in a way but they had the wrong business plan.  If they'd asked for crowdfunding to send Corbers, Abbott, Boris and Trump there (other names are available) they'd have all the money they needed
