  • Water+Mars=?

    Water+Mars=?

    This was the mathish problem I asked last night on my personal Facebook page.. the answers I received were humorous.. But it showcased that the underbelly of humanity yesterday was excited by the prospect that we found water on Mars–water that is flowing. 

    The choice answers included ice cream, ‘humans,’ aliens, and my favorite, ‘how we got here.’ 

    How we got here..
    That has been the long thought inside my own head..

    It’s unbelievable to think of how much changed since my grade school years formed my view of the universe–a view challenged by time and discovery. At that time, Mars was barren and desolate. It was only after hearing Richard C. Hoagland tell Art Bell during the 1990s version of Coast to Coast AM that water flowed on Mars that I actually started to contemplate the idea of liquid on the red planet. . 

    Perhaps that is also why the announcement yesterday wasn’t too surprising to me. 
    Water on Mars.
    The tin foil hat club has known this for years..

    I have a few people I chalk up as friends who take the Bible very literally. I have some spirited discussions with them about my viewpoint on that. But for them, the Bible is gold. It’s the word of God and it’s historical in nature.. So playing the devil in the devil’s advocate setup, I often ask them if they would find it reasonable to conclude that Noah’s Ark was a spaceship and the flood actually happened on Mars, the spaceship traveled to earth to escape. LAUGHABLE, they tell me–of course I remind them that their position also could incur as many chuckles as another. 

    I think now that water has been found, I’m going to tell them it backs up my premise of the NOAH spaceship idea.. Water on Mars. The leftovers of the great flood that ended Mars-humanity.

    Of course.. I’m being tongue in cheek.
    or am I..?

    Nasa scientists find evidence of flowing water on Mars!! »

    Liquid water runs down canyons and crater walls over the summer months on Mars, according to researchers who say the discovery raises the odds of the planet being home to some form of life.

    This is big big big big…
    Big.

  • NASA has set a Mars news conference for Monday September 28 to present a ‘major announcement’

    NASA has set a Mars news conference for Monday September 28 to present a ‘major announcement’

    NASA has sent lots of people into a tizzy over the announcement thety say is coming that will ‘solve’ a mystery about Mars..

    The space agency says a major announcement is coming Monday, a news conference is set for 11:30am ET adn will be broadcast on NASA TV and its website–hopefully it the news is big enough, people will ignore Donald Trump for five minutes and actually give the space agency some time on the major networks..

    If it’s HUGE enough, NBC should do the Chimes of Death and give us a special report on their affiliates. Of course it would have to be big news for the Chimes to play.

    Perhaps water on Mars is.. or life.. or evidence, conclusive evidence, of either..

    One common joke has emerged on the Twitters: NASA found astronaut Mark Watney. Watney is the name of the fictional astronaut stranded on Mars in the movie THE MARTIAN.

    While people are in a frenzy with speculation, a part of me thinks this will be just be a ho-hum news conference with little information rendered.

    I hope I’m wrong, but that seemingly has happened before with earth shattering news.

    The most exciting space story of the year, minus the rodents on Mars images offbeat sites find, has been Pluto and the ever changing way we view that non planet planet. I think life on Mars or evidence of past life would far dominate Pluto..

    We will see Monday.

    A New Hampshire man caught this image of lights in the sky…

    The peculiar part, perhaps, is this: He said the lights were only able to be seen through the camera and not with the naked eye..

    Others have reported the very same type of light formation–only one caught with camera–in various other places..

    It’s a UFO, for sure. 
    But will it ever become an IFO eventually?

    We just …well.. cannot hear them.

    Sort of depressing to think of what we may be missing

    Firm behind Apple’s Spaceship HQ reveals plans for Mars habitat

    And it’s going to be future shock for some..

  • It will be built by three different kinds of robots parachuted to the surface of Mars..
  • It will house four astronauts and be built using regolith – the loose soil and rocks on the surface of the red planet…
  • And it’s all going to be with 3D printing.
  • There will be life on Mars. Or somewhat lifelike virtual life..
  • ‘The design of the habitat – carried out in collaboration with industrial and academic partners – envisions a robust 3D-printed dwelling for up to four astronauts constructed using regolith – the loose soil and rocks found on the surface of Mars,’ it said.The settlement on Mars will be constructed by an array of pre-programmed, semi-autonomous robots prior to the eventual arrival of the astronauts. The habitat will be delivered in two stages prior to the arrival of the astronauts. First, the semi-autonomous robots select the site and dig a 1.5 metre deep crater, followed by a second delivery of the inflatable modules which sit within the crater to form the core of the settlement.

    Don’t count your property before you build on it..

    From the BBC: A question for the future and the ages. Who owns outer space? 

    I would tend to think that if other life forms dominate space, we never will own it and certainly better not try buying..

    New images from Mars have, as usual, caused a sensation..Could this circular stone formation be the Stonehenge of the Red Planet? 

    Could it be the remnants of a past civilization, death from a climactic change? 

    Could it be..stones?

    Oh Ben… 

    Carson argued that evolution was of the devil.

    NO really, he said that it was from hell itself and benefits Satan.
