"Mars has been a source of myth, lore and inspiration since antiquity. It is
also an interesting place to research – a legitimate candidate for us to find
some form of alien life.
Since the 1960s, Mars has been a popular destination for space missions. Now,
for the first time, NASA has invited the private sector to submit proposals on
commercial Mars missions.
These missions would range from carrying various payloads to the red planet, to
providing communications relay services. No talk of a Mars astronaut just yet.
But do people still want to go to Mars? Absolutely. One question is, what is
the best way to get people there? Another question – should we?"
