- The mission you mention is technically feasible, with some risks to the crew
- that others here will certainly elaborate upon.
-
- The major obstacle is money. The Russians don't have it, and the US is not
- going to fund Russians exploration of Mars.
-
- However, if the Finn government were to provide sufficient funding, I'm sure a
- human flight to Mars could be arranged.
