No

Unless I had the resources to survive a natural lifetime. Then definitely... a wife would be nice too but I could survive on porn.

In a heartbeat, yes. Who needs time to consider? Strap me in and shoot me off.

Since, I have already been abducted by aliens, and am being held on this planet against my will, sure.

Although I would love to visit Mars or another object besides the Earth, I would prefer to live a normal life span rather than knowing that I'll be cutting my life short. If it was to build a permanent base on the Moon or Mars I would be all for it.

Agreed, I would only move if I knew I could live at least a somewhat normal life.

I think I remember reading once that the three strongest human desires are self-preservation, leaving a legacy ( which would include procreating) and exploration/discovery. I have already had children and would love to be part of advancing science ...and leave another legacy in the history books. I guess I would have to delude myself into getting past the self-preservation part, but yes, I would go.

Well being that I'm not a world renowned scientist that's older than dirt or dying from some disease I'm not sure what value would be there for me to go. Now if I had to stay there forever but could continue to live maybe but that would be if I wasn't alone. One major drawback is you couldn't use this as a way to get laid... I mean who are you going to brag to about being the bravest dude ever? Seems like a uniquely bad deal.

If I couldn't have children and had a partner with me along with a couple of really cool people, and I knew my family would be looked after for life then maybe! But I'd have a long list of stuff I'd want to bring with me for entertainment!!

hhmmmm interesting. My dream has always been to explore space or even another planet. But last wishes and a few rules would be in order.  I would want at least 2 years supplies to include beer and herbal treats. One year here to say goodbyes, well funded global travels and one massive going away party. And last but not least a "magic" sleeping pill to put me to final rest when the time came. Even if all or some of this wasn't possible hell yeah I'd do it. I had to live my whole life with you people maybe on mars I could rest in peace. Plus jesus never said he'd be visiting mars. I'd be safe for that weirdo too!

I'd be there in a heartbeat. I'd give almost anything to go into space. Sadly I'm probably too old and unskilled to ever actually go but it would be a dream come true.

Mars, yes.  Distant planet, yes.  Moon or asteroid..no.  We've been there and not much going on.
