I was curious about the selection of the potential astronauts. One guy has a wife and family he said he would be willing to leave behind. I was wondering, could you do it? Could you leave your loved ones behind for a one way trip to another planet, never to return?

He never said his wife was a loved one. :biggrin2:

Even if he doesn't go, I'm not sure his wife is going to be very forgiving about that statement.
