No manned Mars missions. Not sure a human being could survive 3 or 4 years in space.
Until we can travel much faster.

The bodies the Lord made for us are designed for optimum survival here on Earth,
and not for traveling through space to other planets.
It's not just getting to Mars, it's getting to Mars alive. Solar and cosmic radiation
can be shielded to a degree, but then again Mars lacks a magnetic field, therefore
a human body will be constantly bombarded with that same solar and cosmic radiation
on the Mars surface.
It's a long, long trip there and back, so that's a whole lot of groceries they'd have to
pack, plus enough water to survive on. Water can be cleaned and recycled, but lunch
can not.
As Canadyjd mentioned, our space ships are slow..at best it's a six month trip to get there,
and at least the same on return plus the time for sightseeing while there. One mistake and
everyone dies. Can't say I'm a fan of those odds.
Continue to send robots. The rovers we've sent in the past have done a fine job of surviving, and they
can send back all the data we need.

I can give a few outstanding recommendations.
It would take over 200 days to get to Mars!
Three years to get to Saturn!
If you need to get their quickly - call Cpt Kirk on the Enterprise!
