MarsOne is a Dutch company which is searching for four candidates to send on a no-return trip to Mars, with the intention of forming the first human settlement there. (No kidding — it's real.)
Unaffiliated, it generates most of its funds by internationally broadcasting the selection process, similarly to the Hunger Games. This process includes rigorous physical, intellectual and psychiatric tests intended to isolate the most healthy, compatible and stable individuals for the mission.
After eight years of training (also broadcasted) the top applicants are ready for launch and the top four alone are posted to Mars, where they are tasked with setting up camp and starting research.
Unfortunately, all will not go according to plan. The astronauts will lose contact with the earth, and a second team, made up of the rest of the fully-trained candidates, will be deployed on a reconnaissance and possibly rescue mission.
You are one of the candidates who signed up for the mission. You will become either a member of the first or the second teams.
