I had ENOUGH! Project Pegasus is now...

... officially open.

Who is in? And I mean business, so those of you who just want to mess around can move along. 8)

First order of business: The name of the entity that will manage the direct-to-Mars project, and what legal status should it have (working with billions and all)?

Second: The structure, and functioning of the entity and the individuals within it.

Third: The writing of business proposals for the purpose of gaining finances to fund Project Pegasus.

Now, GO!

All right: You're so impatient, let's see you take a first stab at it, and then see what happens in reply....

blueyes · 2006-09-15 08:46:34

Everybody is yepping away around here and does very little if anything, when it comes to actually working on getting to Mars, and I'M impatient...

You are out of your mind, mein. 8)

Oh... if I'm impatient, then you're lazy. You want someone else to do the hard work, just so you can stand in the glory at the end, when that happens.

NICE! 8)

You might want to look into the company 4 Frontiers, website at http://www.4frontierscorp.com/ . Their stated mission is "to utilize the economic potential of current and upcoming space frontiers -- Earth Orbit, the Moon, Mars and Asteroids -- to establish an economically viable settlement on Mars". (source: http://www.spaceagepub.com/ArticleArchi … 821_2.html viewed 9-17-06)

Their short-term plan is to build a Mars settlement replica on Earth, to serve as both an educational research, and likely business base. I don't know how big they will grow, but they've been hiring employees and they seem to be the most serious for-profit company out their working on Mars.

Anyone here know more about 4 Frontiers?

Robert gave a bit of their history here ...

http://www.newmars.com/forums/viewtopic … 2&start=68

and their website says that they are going to report on their progress in the next few days at AIAA's Space 2006 conference in the next few days.

They were supposed to build an outreach center, but they seem to have scaled back to a web store ...

4Frontiers is creating an initial webstore product line that includes education packages, books, clothes, toys, games and other Mars and space items related to our informative entertainment business segment.

Have they published anything this year?

Thanks for the info guys, but I already found a better place. It's the MarsDrive Consortium...

I see you guys there! Bye!

I'm not lazy--just old. I just want to see you succeed, friend, if possible in my lifetime. So get off your butt.
