100 people agree to go live in Mars


Some of these Oyibo people are weird sha. 100 of them have agreed to go a one-way mission to Mars – and never return to earth. These 100 people were picked from 200,000 people all over the world who applied for the Mars One mission. 

They’ve agreed to die there. Read the bizarre story below…

100 brave souls from around the globe are now vying for a one-way ticket to Mars, knowing they will never return from the Red Planet. The Dutch-based Mars One project – which aims to send people to live on the faraway planet – has whittled down its shortlist of candidates from more than 200k to just 50 men& 50 women, a 3rd of them Americans

Among the array of science fanatics, Trekies, physics majors, engineers and doctors, there were also a few more surprising choices, including a singer who was doing a two-man show in New York at the time of his application for the program; an artist with a fascinating family connection to NASA; a mechanic from a remote part of Utah, and an aspiring novelist.

From this shortlist, a final crew of four will eventually be sent to Mars, scheduled to arrive in 2025 following a grueling seven-month journey from Earth.

Among the 100 prospective Mars colonists, which hail from 40 countries, there are 33 US residents ranging in age from 19 to 60.

The American hopefuls come from all walks of life, including PhD students, engineers, artists, medical doctors, and even  a singer and a workout trainer.

Out of the 33 men and women vying for the honors of traveling to Mars, half a dozen are over the age of 50, including a married father of five.

Kay Radzik Warren, a 54-year-old architectural project manager, wants to be a part of a settlement on Mars Data analyst Yari Rodriguez, 27, said that going to Mars on a one-way ticket is like donating her body to science

A lot of people do that by having a child…for me this would be my legacy.’ Claire Weedon (right) is the only Briton who doesn’t work in science and is a self-confessed adrenaline junkie

Don’t let his smooth words trick you into a relationship that will be full of dull moments and half-hearted plans. 3. The Liar Don’t trust a man who is constantly lying to you. If you continue to ignore his inconsistencies, he could eventually do something detrimental to your relationship. 4. The Flake This is the guy who calls of dates, constantly changes plans, and never shows up when he promises. If you think this will change once you’re married, you’re wrong.
