I'm quite surprised that @brad did not mention the Mars One reality show that aims to send a crew of people on a one way trip to Mars in about 10 years and basically watch them die.

Yeah, I just heard about this on Al Jazeera recently. My first thought was "well... they're dead."

Holy sheesh, this is crazy. Thanks for posting it.

"Turn on my science" is a phrase I will use if I ever get back in the lab.

@drewbert I know you'll never read this and probably even know it by now, but the robot arms can go left and right as well as backwards and forward. :)

This makes me want to control a real rover and explore the real Mars instead of drive around in this digital one.

@humanity: No, it was at about 42 seconds, he said that Ghosts of Mars wasn't his favourite, then said something, but I've listened to it a few times and I can't make it out. Damn my ears!

He doesn't actually say it but he makes a reference to it and it's Total Recall.

No one will die, because it won't make it to it's first launch.

He said "Give the people the air, Cohagen." in an Arnie voice. It's a line from Total Recall.

Mars Attacks is the best Mars film.
