> Why do you hate the idea of going to Mars so much?
Because there is so much to do on earth? Literally everyone is here. What other answer does anyone else need? All this Mars fandom sounds to me like clinically depressed sci-fi.
I don't mind solitude but even then, going on a an expedition together that you know you won't come back from must be an amazing bonding experience. Can't imagine a more fulfilling destiny than go to another planet.
