I imagine there's half a dozen varieties of lichen we could launch to Mars.
Then, in 75 years, we could build condos.

You cannot SPY on these beings, it is a violation of their intergalactic Constitutional rights.

We are probably alone, within the Milky Way anyway. There is abundant life out there, but it is all microbes. So says Brownlee, lead scientist of the recently landed comet dust return mission, Stardust.

Some lichens could very well survive Mars, but their growth rates are so slow that you'd have to wait more than 75 years.

Eventually, we gotta send the reindeer up there to eat all that stuff....

I dont think we really want to know what is out there considering how far advanced we have not become. Sounds like trouble to me.

"...

That is such an interesting phrase. What would happen if something came along that was not 'life as we know it'?

If the reindeer don't like it, we can always send North Koreans. They'll eat it.
