MarsOne, a non-profit (apparently) organization is planning to send a troupe to Mars to build a small colony there for people to live in. More surprisingly still, you don’t need to be a special astronaut or a VIP to be eligible for this trip, pretty much anyone is welcome. There have been many registrations all across the globe while the rumour mill reports that there have been over 2000 registrations from India itself. Not without a catch of course. If selected, once you leave, you leave forever. The private spaceflight is being led by Dutch entrepreneur Bas Lansdorp who has every intention of establishing a human colony on Mars by 2023.
