Manned One-Way Mission To Mars To Help America’s Future
NASA is planning an audacious mission to send the first manned spacecraft on a one-way mission to permanently settle on other planets.
The ambitious idea is known as the Hundred Year Starship and will send astronauts to colonise planets like Mars knowing they could never come home.
NASA Ames Director Ken Stott revealed that one of NASA’s main research centres has received $1million of funding so far of President Obama to work on the project. The research team has also received an additional $100,000 from NASA.
“You heard it here first,” Stott said at ‘Long Conversation,’ an event in San Francisco.
“We hope to send Sarah Palin and the rest of the members of the Tea Party Movement on one hell of journey. They can inbreed to their hearts content where no one else can hear their deluded rants. Hopefully if the mission is successful then we hope to send Simon Cowell and Piers Morgan will man a second mission to Uranus.”
Mr stott confirmed: The human space program is now really aimed at settling on other worlds. Twenty years ago you would have been fired talking about such missions. Now however, it looks like we could make our dreams come true.”
Sarah Palin was excited upon being linked to the space project.
“Wow! That’s just amazing. Does this mean we can visit on earth on our exploration of space?”
Glen Beck spontaneously burst in to tears when informed of the news.
“It looks like we can all be Tea-baggers together in space.”
