Mars, What a place. It will be years and years before anything can be done there. No atmosphere, nothing. I know the old timers would say, "You can't go faster that 60 MPH, or you'l never go faster than the speed of sound, we'll never terriform Mars" etc. If we have to live underground, what's the use, perhaps a few thousand people who cannot go outside.

I always wanted to go to Mars, but, if you can't go outside then why. I've been there in my Astral travels.

I know tears ago, the Iggi worked there, but at that time, Mars had an atmosphere and water. The face is a monument for a past King--guess what--it is there.

Sorry, just rambling. It won't be for many many many years before any planet in our solar system would be practical to live there, unless you like living underground.

Grant (I don't mean to sound negative, I'm sure someday we will be there----plant life, here, only has about 600000yrs left--because there won't be enough CO2)
