By the 2070's it'll be Cowboy Bebop all over again.


Martian Cowboy Scientists is a site I'd like to see.

Unless Space Programs get more funding, they won't have anything more than a colony of scientists (Scientists who go to stay, not to come back). If they speant money on it their could be a sizable amout of people there by the end of the century.

...why would a sizable amount of people want to live at the very edge of death on an inhospitable planet and how would it benefit mankind ?

It is theoretically possible to alter Mars climate over a period of 900-1000 years.
