I missed the whole Mars/space part...let me clarify some things.
It takes around 6 months to get to Mars and there is a manned mission being planned as we speak. It is labeled "Mars One" and is being organized by a Dutch company. With that said, there is a lot of controversy surrounding it because they want to send 4 humans on a one way trip to Mars to begin colonization(no coming back). The goal is to arrive at the red planet in 2025. Married men with children have applied for the position and wives are filing for divorce and all kinds of shit. Also, Muslims have spoke out against it calling it the Mars Fatwa lol. Anyway...I'm surprised you guys don't know about this? Astronomy is a hobby of mine. More people should get into this subject.
