Hundred Years Starship

NASA'S AMES RESEARCH CENTER directer Pete Worden presented plans for space exploration mission to Mars at a recent conference in San Francisco, CA. The mission titled "HUNDRED YEARS STARSHIP" will be a one way trip as studies show return trip would be too costly. "THE STRATEGY OF ONE-WAY MISSIONS BRINGS THIS GOAL WITHIN TECHNOLOGICAL AND FINANCIAL FEASIBILITY"." Worden is in negotiations with Larry Page, Google co-founder, to help fund the multi-billion dollar project. The project is out there as Worden contemplates, "...RATHER THAN MAKE AN ENVIRONMENT ON MARS LIKE EARTH, WHY DON'T WE MODIFY LIFE... INCLUDING THE HUMAN GENOME... SO IT'S BETTER SUITED TO [MARS]?" Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is also involved in TURNING THE MISSION FROM SCIENCE FICTION to science fact.
