I'd sooner this than live in an underwater base for a year. :P 

More seriously, it's good that preparations are being made for an eventual Mars base. Shows that we are moving forward. But, I can't help but feeling like those who take part in this but never get to experience Mars itself will be hard done by.

Seems this is due to start in Spring next year:

They're still looking for applicants, though - so it sounds like they didn't find enough the first time around!
