At first I was prepared to dismiss this fatwa as an example of antiquated anti-technology religosity, but the more I read it the more I found myself agreeing with the imams who recommend against travel to Mars because, the chances of dying are higher than living. In their ruling, the scholars did not rule out flying to Mars, but instead said that it should happen only after a sustainable settlement is established there (presumably by unmanned rockets sending the necessary equipment before humans visit). This seems to make a lot of sense... cnn/2014/02/25/world/meast/united-arab-emirates-mars-mission-fatwa/index.html?hpt=hp_t3
