First images of water on Mars.

Conservatives want to take this country back and don't believe in doing great things anymore.

What a bunch of idiots.

Which President killed the manned space program so we have to hitch a ride with the Russians

Mattie a delusional partisan.

What about all those shovel ready INFRASTRUCTURE jobs Big Ears spoke of, that did not exist? But, the money went to his friends instead.

Some of you might be thinking this is a hoax, but lets be adult about this.

Water's all over the universe. Dunno why this is so controversial. Hydorgen's the most common element, oxygen in the top 10. The two coming together to form water isn't unsual or difficult.

well the big deal about it is people want to find life on other planets or moons.

considering that no light reaches the bottom of our ocean and there's life down there, the assume leads people to think wherever the is water, there is life.

More like where there's water life is possible. Where there's no water, life as we understand it becomes much less likely.

Just as a star creates and brings together hydrogen and oxygen to make water, life is simply the combination of other elements. If you have gravity, atmosphere, liquid water, the odds for life go up more and more.

no water = no liife

that is the only needed ingredient

LOL!

But actually, uhm.... it appears that there is a small amount of water on the surface of Mars, and far more water on Enceladus.

should I have said;

"PLEASE, oh PRETTY Please, lets be adults about this, please!

You pansy, you!!!

Keep in mind, the Aerospace community, led by NASA, officially has no reason to exist. There is no reason to go to any planet, and the budget does not permit any major projects any more. So they publish bullshit like "liquid water on Mars" to give the gullible public the illusion that there is a possibility of life on Mars or some other planet. Which serious scientists acknowledge is an impossibility, unless you posit an infinite number of potential planets. Again, complete nonsense.

Well space travel is a fantasy. While people claim advances where made b/c of nasa they can't say that it would not have occurred with any honesty. and really, nasa is expensive and we are $18 Trillion in the hole.

Uhm, no.

The ion drive is already built and being improved upon.

All hail progress! Forward!

Just about all the water currently on the Earth came from off-planet. And it's throughout the solar system to this day. Jupiter's moon Europa has a liquid water ocean beneath the ice on the surface, Saturn's moon Titan does too. And it's present in every comet and many asteroids. Water water everywhere.

What's mind-blowing is where water ultimately originates: stars. Before stars gets hot they make and expel water into space.

Like a vaginal orgasm?

Thats why the thread.

There's a really small amount of water, but there is evidence that would lead people to conclude that it may have been covered with water at some time in the very distant past.

I don't expect to find life or evidence that there ever was w/o boots on the ground. And not even then, b/c the first thing they would need to do is survive, and I don't think digging for bones is on that list.

The ion drive was a cast off that got dusted off. If I recall from the special, it can't get you off the ground but will keep going faster and faster once in space.

Still space travel is a pipe dream until we can get to light speed as the distance to anywhere worth physically going.... well, it's not in this system as we can see and measure everything
