I don't think it would be that bad, the people they select won't be the brainless chimps of GFY, they'll be gone over psychologically and physically with a fine tooth comb many times. I'm sure some will succumb to the stress but most will do what they were sent to do and die stoically.
Now if they had only GFY to choose from, that rocket ship isn't even getting off the launch pad - the sound of crying would drown out the rocket engine, the smell of shit being thrown against the walls and deposited in their spacesuits ..........
