““The only controls available to those on board were two push-buttons on the center post of the cabin -- one labeled on and one labeled off . The on button simply started a flight from Mars. The off button connected to nothing. It was installed at the insistence of the Martian mental-health experts, who said that human beings were always happier with machinery they thought they could turn off.””
