  Hmm... mixed emotions. like Shaginyan says I feel sorry for them. Especially since it seems more like a hellish torture than an experiment . But the data returned could be invaluble. Lets face it.

    Arenot animals consumed and tested on constantly in our society. I am not saying that to justify just many things go on that is a lot worse.

      This is true. But this experiment will be pretty long and drawn out for these animals. You're talking aboout a , what is it? 6-9 month journy in a tin can with zero G. With dispensed food & water. plus the radiation hazards. their not going to know what the F is happening to them. It seems just a little extreme/ sad...

        Well, I don't see as of yet any serious effort to reach Mars via a manned flight; somebody will cross that animal testing path when it comes -- that much is for certain...
