Life On Mars. We're very close!

Posted by: Tony2011 on 14 November 2016

There is an interesting program on the National Geographic channel involving the real possibilities and complications of setting up a base and crew on the red planet. Part fictionalised and interpolated with contributions from scientists, it seems this is going to be the greatest journey mankind has ever undertaken in the history of exploration. It's not a question of if but when. I may not be around but it will definitely happen. Watch it if you can.

They said the same about the moon.......what's the point of going to Mars .......unless it's to drop off Mr Trump....

Take the snowflakes too; a store of water for the journey, desalinate as required, and a source of food, thin-skinned so easy to get at the meat.

Thanks for the nod re the show.

Cheers,
