Life on Mars or Staged Media Event?
The Dutch, always great explorers, are sending humanity to Mars. They call it “A media spectacle!” Mars One will be such a big deal that “the whole world will want to watch and be a part of it!” You can begin right now with this introductory video:
But be warned! Some people say the whole thing will be just as staged as the moon landings. And remember how quickly that rabid interest faded for Apollo? After the big “first man on the moon” show, well … it got boring.
Maybe the cameras in every crevice of the Mars One colony will reveal a colonist gone crazy, admitting the whole thing is being staged in an underground base in Australia, and the Martian landscape is just CGI over the urdera.
Or maybe – just maybe – you could apply to become an astronaut and actually go to Mars! Spoof or sporata? Either way, that is definitely a Wild Friday.
