Living on mars

On Tuesday, Elon Musk gave a keynote talk at the 67th International Astronautical Congress in Guadalajara, Mexico. Musk made it clear that he wants to make a "ticket to Mars" within reach for many people, aiming to bring the price down to $200,000 — or the median cost of a house in the US.
But one qualification might set a potential Mars explorer apart from your average Joe looking to vacation on the red planet: a required comfort level with a grand adventure that has quite a high chance of ending in death.
"The first journey to Mars is going to be really very dangerous," Musk said. "The risk of fatality will be high, there's just no way around it."
People going will have to start the set up  and colonization of mars. they will struggle for the first few years and might even die.
