Comment on How can we get to Mars faster

What a dumbass. If we send people in the quickest possible way (or any way at all, really) and they all die in the attempt, that will set the whole project back decades.

The answer to the radiation problem is better shielding, not a fundamentally unsafe mission.

btw it is not the nuclear propulsion that I’m calling unsafe. It is the idea that we could do without redundancy. That’s just a monumentally stupid idea.
