Major updates today on the astronaut selection and training processes.  Multiple teams of 4 will be selected for training.

I'm surprised to see so much hand-wringing on this site about a one-way Mars mission.  Did the Jamestown Company get charged with manslaughter for transporting willing individuals to a new world?  That also proved to be very dangerous.  This appears to be a colonization mission, not a plant-the-flag-and-bring-back-some-rocks effort.  Still no sign of where the funding will come from, but this appears to be a serious effort.

Someone put a lot of thought into this:

Of course, the one trillion dollar price tag will take some persuading....

I used to find this forum from the Mars Society site, but there's no link anymore.  I didn't realize the site was back up until today.  Any chance they would add the link back?
