Six Men Spent 520 Days Locked in a Room to See If We Could Live on Mars
One of my pet peeves with Mars enthusiasts is that they ignore the reality that living on Mars is going to truly, truly suck. You will never be outdoors again. You will have the constant whirr of machinery. You will have to plan outings down to the last bottle of O2. You will eat shit food. And you will gaze upon a dim Sun through a dusty porthole.The idea of Mars is spectacular and wondrous and ecstatic and beautiful. Actual Mars sucks harder than you can possibly imagine.
