I think it is important to note that although the astronauts who go will be chosen at the end by the public, it looks like they will only be giving people the choice between qualified people. They are looking for exceptional people with expertise in multiple fields (i.e. Emergency Medicine and Geology).

It will be very interesting to follow this whole thing.

I personally will be so thrilled if this happens. It could be the next big leap forward.

I can certainly say I will be watching.
