And what are these million people going to do other than struggle for survival? It reminds me of the EOL of the Space Shuttle where its primary mission was to return to Earth with out blowing up.
And while traveling Mars seems like an exciting engineering challenge, I can't imagine why would people want to leave the comfort of Earth to go to the red planet?
Going to Mars isn't like discovering America...
