Comments on Too Many Mars Missions Planned?
Very funny spoof of the increasing traffic on Mars. (Read
the complete story)
| "It kinda makes me *sigh* to see how very little we have come in space travel to know that we still have "POSSIBLE" retrieval missions to one of the closes planets to earth. I had the silly expectations of people actually walking on that planet by now. How sad." (SJ 12/30/2006 12:02:44 PM) |
| "In my book THIRTY YEARS AFTER VIKING which I wrote the first completed draft of in 1979 I wrote about sending a powered projectile that uses the Ground/Ship Launch/Propulsion System to Mars by 1988. The Trailblazer Rover releases its robots to retrieve material to take back to earth. One of the robots enters a bookstore in the city of Janvuor and tries to remove a book. It is arrested and tries to escape. It is destroyed by the robotic police. In 1992, an Apache who has learned one of the Martian languages becomes the spokesman for earth with the Martian computer that controls the planet. The title of the book refers to the year when the first permanent colony is placed on Mars. Since that year would have been 2006, it looks like it will have to be delayed at least a decade or two. But GSLP could be used to send a power projectile to Mars with materials needed to start a colony and later, astronauts could go there and live and work. Once the field towers provide the atmospheric electromagnetic field protection, terraformation could go on and in time, portions of Mars will be habitable and no one will need a spacesuit to go outside in those areas. That could happen before the turn of the 22nd century. " (Rick Badman 12/30/2006 4:57:46 PM) |
| " Actually I feel not enough is being done in "Safe" space exploration. As Hawking has mentioned we need to spread out in order to assure survival of the species. As to the video; it's fantastic in it's creativity and production.
Mystery" (MysteryStevenson 1/16/2007 1:09:28 AM) |
