        - Traveling to Mars
        would be incredible.      
        It would be,
        with current technologies,      
        approximately eight months
        in transit;      
        you'd be on the surface
        for a year, year and half;      
        and then
        another eight months back.      
        So it'd be, like,
        a three-year mission.      
        And it'd kind of
        be taking a road trip      
        with, well,
        three of your best friends.      
        You'd hopefully have,
        you know, a camper attached,      
        so another Mars transfer
        spacecraft, perhaps,      
        to give you some more space
              
        to conduct experiments
        and work in your lander.      
        But other than that,
        you'd mostly have to be able      
        to, well, survive
        in confined quarters;      
        to exercise and work out
        to keep yourself fit      
        so that way,
        when you got onto the planet,      
        you'd be able to get out,
              
        put on those space suits,
        walk around;      
        and to always be, you know,
        kept intellectually challenged,      
        solving problems,
        maintaining the spacecraft.      
        And, well, just like
        you have to clean your room,      
        we have to make sure
        we do housekeeping      
        and keep everything maintained.
