Mars One – the first plan for a human settlement on Mars

There is already an established plan for the preparation and astronaut training. The first humans to settle on Mars will arrive in 2023, with the launch scheduled for September 1, 2022.

The roadmap seems quite simple:

2013 – The astronaut selection begins. A total of 40 people will be chosen to live and train in a replica of the Martian settlement.
2014 – This is where the preparation for sending the first batch of supplies and communication satellite begins.
2016 – In January the supplies, 2500 kg of food and the satellite will be send to Mars.
2018 – A rover will land on Mars. It will choose the best location for the settlement and will stream live video to Earth available for anyone to watch.
2021 – All supplies for the settlement will have landed on Mars plus a second rover.
2022 – All the machinery needed for water, oxygen and atmosphere production will be ready. The first manned flight to Mars launches on September 14. Four people will take the one-way trip to the red planet.
2023 – The first people will land on Mars and start working on the settlement. Two years later the next colonizers will arrive, bringing new modules, rover and hardware.

Although it's most likely that you won't settle on the surface of mars, instead you'll be hanging in the air at an altitude, where the gravity is more or less the same as earth.

I feel there are lot of problem existing on the earth need to be sorted out first ,the resources should utilize first for earth than move to mars and
If that happens ...First I will get a marine combat training , you never know what happens there ....

Will the settlements have artificial gravity?

As humans move towards space colonization, I wonder what the effect on our bodies would be. Eg, once a large permanent-type settlement thrives on Mars, those inhabitants will give birth to the next generation of people. These kids would never have experienced Earth, so their bodies might become accustomed to the lower gravity on Mars.

So will the next Martain generations be considered 'weak bodied' in terms of Earth standards?

If we colonize a planet with gravity greater than Earth's, then would that colony produce supermen?
