Geez, what nutcases...
We cannot even get one manned vehicle to Mars, much less get a whole lot of people there, and then “terraform” it at the same time.
These people need to retire and start writing science fiction novels. At least it would be honest work.
Besides the fact that radiation would kill them faster than a miserable life on earth living next to liberals...
Iow, Mars is suicide. Total garbage.
All this type of BS does is demonstrate their thinking.
What they’re not saying is the reality, which is that leaders need to collectively figure out how to “thin the herd”.
That should alarm everyone.
Worst part is, we are paying this sub moronic idiot to the tune of $175K per year plus benefits and will be for the remainder of his and his spouses life.
We can’t even get a manned vehicle to earth orbit. We have to rely on the Russians.
I think you have to stand back and look at the advancements of the past one-hundred years. Look at the lifestyle and comforts of 1915 and compare to today. A guy gets up....checks his cellphone for weather, and has a doppler-radar display that shows the storms approaching. He has a car with GPS to guide him over to the airport. He’ll fly from Dallas to Alexandria, Egypt. He’ll tour the Pyramids tomorrow....riding in a air-conditioned bus. He’ll drink French glacier water while resting at a resort along the Nile. He’ll return next week to Dallas with some fantastic disease that you’d die from in 1915, but get treatment and easily survive.
So look ahead now by one-hundred years. We will advance with some special engine and be able to reach Mars in three weeks by the mid-way point of this century (thirty-five years away). 3-D printing will eventually allow you to have a 1935 Auburn Roadster-looking car on a 2015 Ford Mustang chassis. Probably a hundred scientists will be living on the moon in some type of lab for weeks at a time.
By 2200 (185 years away), we will have scouted out 200 different planets beyond the solar system and probably have five or six colonies set up and running. Five-million people will have left the planet and there’s talk of a fear of too many people now desiring to leave and some countries unable to function because they’ve lost a fair amount of the population.
The truth is....we are now advancing at a fantastic rate, and we simply can’t recognize that. We’ve barely had GPS capability two decades now...remember when you had that Hammond Atlas under the seat of your car for traveling purposes? Remember when you had to carry a check-book around with you to pay bills? Remember when you forgot something and spent thirty minutes looking for a pay-phone to call home? Remember when you got all political and wanted to chat about Republicans....you had to go to the local bar (now just log onto FreeRepublic)?
