Why can’t we live near a planet with some people on it?

Pictures are impressive. Conjecture about how it all occurred is pure foolishness. The scientists don’t have a clue. Don’t want to hear it.

The first colonists to land on Mars are supposed to arrive around 2022. It’s a one way trip.

There were Martians but they saw what humans were doing and left for a better neighborhood.

I still want to know what this is doing on Mars. Curiosity photographed it.

Caption: This NASA-Curiosity image was taken several hundred feet east of the initial “Bradbury Landing” site, as the rover was driving toward a region called, “Glenelg.” The image shows a remarkably symmetrical object, with another obvious “pipe” extending out of the center … towards the rover camera.

Very impressive.

It would be more impressive if a European had taken the photo after landing on Mars, or the Moon.

Nothing is as impressive as manned space flight.

But Obama canceled that.

I sort of figured this would be posted as an “Intergalactic Business Tip.”

That looks like the remains of an Imperial Probe Droid.

Wow. That little planet has been popped a whole lot of times by space debris.
Closer to the asteroid belt, might be why.

I used the words “Mars Express” in the search box and got this.

Is that how you found them?

By the way that last picture, the one showing the canals, is really a smooth looking surface.

Lots of beach. No water. Looks like the wind blows a lot.
