Citizen Mars: the bonus bits

Cannibalism on Mars | Bonus Clip | Citizen Mars S1

The Mars One candidates have a single goal: to help establish the first human settlement on the Red Planet. Over the course of five episodes, we've seen them weigh up what it takes to become a Mars One astronaut and the costs of leaving everyone and everything behind. Now, in these bonus clips, they're asked how they would face some particularly challenging situations in their new Martian habitat.

If they ran out of food would they eat a fellow astronaut? How do they feel about the possibilities of romantic relationships on Mars? Can people have babies in space (and should they?) Watch how Sue Ann, Mido, Adriana, Shradha and Pietro answer these particularly challenging queries.


The Citizen Mars series takes an in-depth look at five of the 100 finalists for the Mars One mission. In each episode we chart the progress of everyday people determined to be the first to colonise the red planet.

Through interviews and extensive vérité that spans Europe, Africa, Asia and the US, discover the obsession with the future, adventure and space that's propelling them to leave everything -- and everyone -- behind.
