I guess nothing's impossible...

Internal consumption only.

It's like Bush's Mars plans, or the Chinese lunar programme. Everyone knows they don't have the resources, but it sure sounds good.

I guess mister Bush is so crazy than my socks.

The whole AMrs thing isn't impossible. We just need bigger space craft for the fuel and supplies. Over a year in space can mess with people's minds. They feel like they can fly.

Best part of the article:
"But such dreams were almost immediately called into question when the first batch of would-be space explorers struggled with a simple fitness test."

"On Saturday, the first group from a shortlist of more than 800 would-be astronauts set out to run 3.5km (two miles) in a leisurely 20 minutes.

All were hoping to claim Malaysia's seat on a Russian-led space mission, scheduled for 2007.

But only 12 out of 31 taking part passed the test. "
