- I just read that if we want to send a human mission to Mars and return the astronauts safely to Earth, it'’s gonna cost $5 billion.
- Is $5 billion a lot of-- uh, what do you call it-- "money"?
- Oh, yeah, it'’s a lot.
So I want to do my part and get the mission off the ground.
We got to go to Mars!
- But if you really want to go to Mars, you can just ask my mom and dad, and they'’ll fly you up there in the saucer in five minutes.
- Jet, I want to grow up to be an astronaut, to train really hard, and then get picked to lead the team that flies to Mars.
The Earth way, in a rocket!
- Which is way slower than the Interstellar Overdrive that you Bortronians have, Jet.
- And don'’t Earth rockets cost a lot of money?
- Don'’t worry about that.
I'’ve got a foolproof plan.
- How are you gonna raise all that money?
- By selling snow cones.
If I sell '’em for 50¢ each, I figure I'’ll need to sell 10 billion of '’em.
- Or one really, really expensive one.
- I love this idea!
What a great plan.
And what a great Earth invention.
You can make snow cones in so many different colors!
- Mm-hmm.
The rainbow ones are the best.
- Okay.
Ready for our first customer.
It'’s so hot out, we should sell a ton of '’em.
[crickets chirping] - Okay.
Where are the customers?
- Well, so far, we'’ve got Sunspot.
Hey, enough free samples.
Your next one'’s 50¢.
I'’m trying to get to Mars.
