Mars One, the company that promised to put humanity on the red planet has met an unfortunate, and what many say is an wholly-expected, end. Mars One Ventures, the for-profit arm of the Mars One mission, was declared bankrupt back in January.

Mars One, based out of the Netherlands, is a one way ticket to Mars, a mission to establish a permanent Martian human colony by the year 2027. But with new information revealed, does the mission have a chance of succeeding?

Over the next few months, the 663 candidates who survived the first round selection process to become the first colonizers to go to Mars, will now go through an interview with Mars One's Chief Medical Officer. Those who survive will go on to round three.

Sydney - The Massachusetts Institute of Technology study of the Mars One project has come up with a few very interesting, but debatable figures and options. There's a bit more to this issue than the usual obituary for human hopes, this time.

There has been a lot of media attention over the Mars One mission to colonize Mars in 2025 using known and available technology. That very technology may very well prove to be the undoing of the project.

A highly-publicized plan to send the first humans to Mars within the next decade is riddled with problems and probably will not get off the ground any time soon, according to a new report from researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Sydney - If you’re one of those people has been watching the Mars One mission evolve, you’ll be pleased to hear your input is needed. The new Mars One University Challenge is designed to get feedback and ratings from interested people and followers.

A one-way ticket to Mars may not be your cup-of-tea, but a chance to see the Earth in all its glory from sub-orbital space might be more inviting. By contributing to the Mars One project, people can earn an entry into a drawing for a free space trip.

Sydney - Slightly belated as it may seem, this question is part of a bit of soul-searching on the part of Mars One, the first commercial-only one-way trip to Mars. One of the questions they asked was “Is a one-way mission insane?”

Amersfoort - Mars One, the controversial “ultimate reality show” program to land people to live on Mars, has issued a press release requesting proposals for four demonstration payloads. The project has attracted thousands of volunteers, and a lot of skepticism.

Mars One, a not-for-profit foundation working to establish the world's first human settlement on the planet Mars, has partnered with Uwingu, a company with the primary mission of creating a personal connection between the world and space exploration.

Out of over 200,000 applications sent in to the Mars One project, 1,058 lucky would-be space travelers made it to the second-round on their quest to become the first in a group of four colonists to go Mars in 2024.

Bas Lansdorp told CBC Radio in Canada on Monday that his intention to send a mission to Mars is seeking willing participants. He can, and will, he says, get them there but the job lasts a lifetime because he can't bring them back.

Sydney - Mars One is the byproduct of decades of nothing being achieved in terms of real human progress in space. The idea is a one-way trip to live on Mars, and there are 8000 applicants ready to go in 2022.

If things go as planned by a Dutch venture, there’s a strong likelihood of human settlements on the Red Planet by 2023. The Dutch company has just received its first funding from the sponsors.

Mars One wants to create human settlements on the Red Planet. A Digital Journalist photographs a D-Day memorial event in Toronto. An Indian village is overrun by giant venomous spiders. These are the top stories from across the world.

An ambitious new project has started. Mars One plans to establish the first human settlement on Mars in 2023. Only one problem, you can't come back.
