The Cassini mission is going to rock.
All those enviroweenies tried to prevent its launch a few years ago, but the big payoff is only half a year away.

How about whichever plannet has a van allen belt? (an electromanetic field which deflect solar radiation like that of earth.) Jupiter has one. Jupiter's moons are covered.

If we follow the guidelines set out by environmentalists,... Environmentalists. So that's what happened to Mars.

The Cassini mission will be a tremendous chapter in the exploration of space. I can't wait, counting down to July.

Maybe they can send Sheila Jackson Lee a picture of the flag that the astronauts left on Mars!

Does that mean America owns Mars?

How about whichever planet has a van allen belt? A function of having a planetary magnetic field. Earth for sure. Ever used a magnetic compass? Jupiter too, according to what I've read. But apparently not an intrinsic property of being a planet.

We're still looking.

Then what is your scientific basis for stating "where there's water there's life" is a myth?

Water is a necessary condition for life (probably) but not a sufficient condition.
To: firebrand
I can't follow all that scientific mumbo jumbo.
