| Mars One, a Netherlands-based non-profit organization, has recently started taking applications to be one of four pioneers to set up a permanent colony on Mars. Once these four have set up a base camp, the idea is to ship out more colonists every two years and expand. According to Space.com, Mars One plans to finance this operation “by staging a global reality-TV event, with cameras documenting all phases of the mission from astronaut selection to the colonists’ first years on the Red Planet.” This sounds equal parts wonderful and terrifying to me.

So far, plenty of people are interested in this job offer. As of a few days ago, the number was already at 78,000 applicants.
