NASA Looking to Make Manned Mars Mission an International Project

NASA's Constellation program, part of the future effort to send a manned spacecraft to Mars, will most likely be an international undertaking. The participating countries of the International Space Station will be included in the planning of such a mission, though the mission may not necessarily be limited to the participation of only those countries. Manned missions to the Moon can be used to test equipment and methods required for a manned mission to Mars. Such a high-profile international project as a manned Mars mission may redefine theories of international diplomacy.
