I think there is, but I think that sending humans to Mars can do a better job than robots..

but if Reagan and the Bushes couldn't swing it....you sure as hell wont see it from the messiah.

Fossils. And the only way we’ll know is to go there and dig them out. After being obamafied though, that’ll be a real long time. ‘Guess I won’t know in this life anyway.

Wow, is this guy a great urinalist!!?? Yep, the recent Bilderbergers meeting in Greece was to coordinate a brilliant conspiracy to keep the world from knowing about Bigfoot life on Mars and how they built a spacecraft to come to Earth, all so they can can hold us all hostage from their threat of a Martian invasion to further their evil plan of worldwide domination! NASA was created by these evil geniuses just to further the conspiracy!
Who knew the Bilderbergers were fronting for Christian fundamentalist fanatics?? Is that brilliant or what??!!
And Doctor Evil is orchestrating it all! For a measly million bucks! Mooooohhhaaaaahhhhaaaa!

Fossils—Richard Hoagland over at enterprisemission.com found pretty good evidence for a fossil in an early Mars Rover photograph.

Yeah, but to be sure we’ve got to go with our collective hammers, brushes and geological wonder.

It's 9.8 on earth, not mars.
But of course I'm still wrong as the gravity at the surface of mars is only 3.73 m/s^2.
(Yeah I'm not so nerdy that i actually research things like this for joke post!)
But the cool thing about google is you can actually type this in and get the answer:
3.73 meters in cubits
And it dutifully spits out 3.73 meters = 8.15835521 cubits
So in cubits the correct value for acceleration due to gravity at the surface of mars is about 8.15 cubits/s^2 and since the nasty creationists changed it to 9.2 that is easily enough to cause the vessel to fire its retros wrong and crash.

I was just having a bit of fun with my nerd credentials! Top this one: years ago, garage door openers had to be set manually using an 8-position inline switch, ie, 8 switches set in one of two positions. My house number was 237, so I programmed the door opener code to be 237 in binary. That’s nerdy.

Dude, that is good but I have you beat. When I was 14 I got my first computer, an ohio scientific C1P, and I memorized all the op-codes for the 6502 processor and programmed it directly in machine code, sans assembler. Don’t remember a blasted one now though, 34 years later.

I remember that one—I had a Trash-80!
