\u201cThe idea of a one way mission, that, you know, you go to Mars, spend two years there, then have a suicide pill – or you go there at age 65 live for twenty years and then check out – no. That is not attractive. But what is very attractive is the idea of the \u201cNormandy Beach Approach\u201d – which is, you go to Mars, one way, not with the intent of dying there – but with the intent of living there.
