Time to change the title!

[quote]Today at 10:00 a.m. Pacific time, NASA announced they had, at long last, found strong evidence of recent liquid water flows on Mars.

Observations from the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) have revealed "recent activity" on the surface of the red planet; recent meaning in the past seven years. These changes include cratering from impacts (which is cool enough, and I’ll blog about those later), but also, yes, the flow of water.[/quote]

    Why did you quote someone without saying anything in the quote? You translating it to sign language or something?

    Apparently old news...[URL=http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Mars_Express/SEMGKA808BE_0.html]Ice on Mars[/URL]

    That means we can harvest it like in Futurama but that was from Haleys Comet. Bye bye global warming :)

    I wonder if that is water or whether it is a small avalanche?

    It could just be Frozen C02...In that case we're back to where we started. Terraforming or Habitation Domes? I say 50 years with Nano refinement and reprocessing technology it may be pretty easy to terraform the planet into something similiar to earth. It may also even be possible to terraform asteroids in the asteroid field bordering Mars. Mars could start up and pay its debt by mining raw resources, who knows there may be Oil on them there Mahhs.

    TOTAL RECALL ANYONE?

    That would be a good way to go but its all pointless as Phobos is in a degrading orbit of Mars and will collide with the plant in... 10 million years, or is it a 100 million... oh well its ages away yet.

    Damn yes Total Recall here we come... we can avoid it if we keep Ronnie Cox off the planet :D
