Private Dutch company “Mars One”, which promised to send to 2027 expedition to the Red Planet and received from investors tens of millions of dollars, it turns out, went bankrupt.
This unexpectedly became known thanks to the inquisitive Internet user who has found financial reports on the web companies in the public domain. It turned out that the enterprise It was put under liquidation at the beginning of this year, however no public announcements for Mars One did.
Such an ambitious space project founded in 2011 businessman bass lansdorp. The Dutchman promised to arrange an unprecedented reality show so that billions of viewers can see on television, how a group of people master Mars. Major financial support the company received by selling the rights to a TV broadcast of the planned historical event.
The show was, of course, unprecedented. According to Lansdorp, compared with this short landing Americans to the moon would become baby talk.
The company even managed to select the first “Martian settlers” and, according to the current bankrupt, conducted their education and training. IN in total, the Dutch wanted to send to the Red Planet 20 human. An unmanned cargo ship was supposed to be delivered to “Martian TV show” everything you need, including comfortable construction houses that would reliably protect colonists from space radiation.

Note that the overly bold plans of “Mars One” were exposed criticized since the announcement. Authorities claimed that mankind does not yet have the technology necessary for flight to Mars and its colonization, and an attempt of a similar mission will certainly result in death for the crew.
Recall that something similar was conceived in due time by the well-known “US space billionaire” Elon Musk, who was already gaining an international team for such an ambitious project as flying to Mars. And where is it all now? How can I not remember the words of a sober politician and sane person Vladimir Putin possessing reliable information of any scale, which in one of its speeches in front of a wide audience noticed that humanity is still not ready for manned flights to either the Moon or Mars.
Pay attention to this statement – not yet ready. How way it was “ready” for flights to the moon in the last century in face of the Americans? Elon Musk and the hedgehog with him perfectly show us today that manned space flights of americans and others Western dreamers are nothing more than advertising tricks, but simply – adventures that sooner or later burst like soap bubbles that and the company “Mars One” is showing us now.
