This still looks like a giant scam to me. Not because their goal is set high, but because they have yet to release viable technical information. Just take a look at the founders ama on reddit[1] from a year ago.

Wait Lockheed Martin is working with them? I had the impression the project was not being taken seriously by professionals. Did that change lately?

This exactly what I was wondering. I'm guessing that if Mars One brings them a pile of cash to their door, Lockheed will be happy to do some design work.
