If we made a colony on another planet would you move there?

Random question.

Lets say the earth has been keeping a secret from us. They have built up an enclosed city on mars or any other planet without telling us. And now there allowing people to fly there in some superdooperflying machine what will get there in a few hours. You got the offer to move there for nothing and have a free flat/house.

Would you move there ? and what would be your favorite planet to live on?

If they made a colony on the moon i would love to live there. I dont think i would get bored of watching the earth and wonder what there doing down there. i would have a telescope to spy on people <3

Depends if it's any better than here. Depends on loads of things.

Only if it was as beautiful and diverse as the earth.

That depends on whether I get to stay in the Nazi Moon Base

pretty much this, Mars would be cool, but there's only so much red landscape you can stare at before it gets boring

i'd go to venus as apparently that's where all the women are.

Supposedly they are really hot.

Yes. No doubt about it whatsoever.

This.

If it was a meritocracy, yes. If it was a random collection of proles, unlikely.

That goes without saying.

Depends who else was there, I mean if it was a colony of 450 chavs, then no.

Assuming it was a colony of reasonable people then absolutely.

I bet on Uranus life would be crappy.

LoL, anyway not sure it might be cool, but really haven't thought about it. Ofcourse, being where the sun wasn't so bright would be ok.

Makunouchi · 27 Mar 2010 at 15:14

Only if Arnie goes with us.

supercrewd · 27 Mar 2010 at 15:15

depends how fast the internet is there.....

Twentyone · 27 Mar 2010 at 15:17

I don't think I would until there was a lot of people who had moved over and they had lived there for a while.
Don't like the thought of living on another planet if there was only about 200 people living alone on something so big. Don't know why

It all comes down to 2 things.

1) Internet connection speed.

2) Latency for gaming.
