You have been chosen to go to Mars (you must) and can choose your mode of transportation.
One method is 'teletransportation' where you step into a scanner and all your particles are destroyed and scanned. The particle information is restored on Mars and will be an exact replica of you with entirely new particles.
The other method is space travel which has a 50% chance of not completing its route.
1. Do you take the teletransporter? (or)
2. Do you take the spacecraft?
What does this advertisement "say"?
Have an anti-capitalist weekend!
