Believing therefore that the exploration and settlement of Mars is one of the greatest human endeavors possible in our time, we have gathered to found this Mars Society, understanding that even the best ideas for human action are never inevitable, but must be planned, advocated, and achieved by hard work.  We call upon all other individuals and organizations of like-minded people to join us in furthering this great enterprise.  No nobler cause has ever been. We shall not rest until it succeeds.

-- excerpts from the Founding Declaration of the Mars Society.
