Default Planned manned mission to Mars by 2023
Mars One will establish the first human settlement on Mars in 2023. A habitable settlement will be waiting for the settlers when they land. The settlement will support them while they live and work on Mars the rest of their lives. Every two years after 2023 an additional crew will arrive, such that there is a real living, growing community on Mars. Mars One has created a technical plan for this mission that is as simple as possible. For every component of the mission we have identified at least one potential supplier. Mars One invites you to join us in this next giant leap for mankind! http://mars-one.com

A one-way trip?
There'd be some takers for sure no doubt but it seems a tad too ambitious and optimistic. It also makes very sweeping statements without a lot of detail unfortunately.

It'd be an utterly amazing experience to see Mars but being stuck there .... ?


Edit - they do mention being able to come back to Earth later on - http://mars-one.com/faq-en/19-faq-he...s-this-ethical - still somewhat short on detail though.
