NASA is Discussing One way trip to Mars.

I read the other day that NASA would be discussing sending astronauts to Mars on a one way trip. They would not be expected to return to Earth. They would live out the rest of their lives on Mars. The plan would also include sending robots ahead to begin clearing and building living shelters.

Unfortunately NASA has a limited budget and they think a back and forth trips to mars would not be financially feasible. Some people said they would do this, I find that hard to believe. There are also radiation concerns while living on Mars.
