Mars One: En personlig ansøgning til envejsrejse

I’ve just read an advertising about the Mars One mission, where four people get selected to go to Mars and give up life on earth.

I wrote as soon as I could, and I have already applied. I would love to go to Mars, even if it means I need to give up life on Earth. A lot have asked why, so not I’m writing an article.

Since I was a little girl, I always wanted to go to outer space. When I was seven years old, I got my first “Kids Space” book, and I fell in love with it. When I was eight years old, I almost had glowing stars in my whole room. On the walls, windows, my door, and even my floor. I loved to look at them, glowing in the dark and dream about the day I could travel to the outer space. I was in third grade, and school was not interesting at all… the teacher didn’t teach about the outer space, they couldn’t even answer my questions.

Then I got older, smarter and even more into outer space. The questions I had were finally answered, when I was to a space show in France. At that time, I was fourteen, and I knew exactly what I wanted to study in the future.
