Mars 500 completed!

Mars mission makes its 'return'

So, after spending all that time together locked in a tin can, have we learned that human beings really can endure these conditions when it comes to the real thing, or are we just capable of living in a Big Brother style environment, knowing at the end of the tunnel is a decent amount of wage built up and knowing full well at any point you could unlock the door and walk out (unlike a real mission)

What are your thoughts?

I think instead of wasting time training for a mission to Mars for 500 days they should have just taken risk and sent them... Damn, what a waste of time. The real mission will consist of Space Ghost leading the orbiter into deep space with second in command Corvax... Good luck.

Haha yeah they should have just sent them to Mars for real... I would have gone

Yeah, I'm desperate to go

My goal is to stay alive to see the Mars landing. Should be in the 2020s sometime, so a long while to wait yet!
