601px-EdwinAldrin_big Good (if short) interview with Buzz Aldrin at Popular Mechanics wherein he talks about the current state of NASA manned spaceflight and the potential of a significant Mars mission.

His main point with regards to a manned Mars mission is if we don't go to stay then we shouldn't go at all.

It shouldn't be one-two-three missions, the way we did with Apollo. I think the reason to go to Mars is to establish a permanent colony.

This lines up to Rich's recent posts regarding Mars.
