NASA Spacecraft Successfully Lands on Mars

[bmwsux4]

Some of masa and others think too human for mars and other planets. Who exactly says alien life has to contain water or carbon?

Life could have started over there or anywhere else in cyanide or liquid ammonia; normal to them, and poison to people.

Which brings another point; water could be poison to alien life.

Perhaps if we stop thinking human, we could realize that alien life does exist in what would seem a harsh enviroment to us.

i've thought this all my life - but always thought it was a dumb response - comforting to know i'm not alone ;)

[stellwind]

Nasa don't gained the moon.. it's all false

[ukidding]

the white ground material may be salt but not ice.

[zxcts]

i dont know if i can believe nasa theyve been lyin for 50 years

[JQourydxyz]

no...

[2thepeopleuk]

its ture search disclosure project

[zxcts]

check out project camelot,you probably already did but if you dont check it out youll hear things that youve never heard before

[Aegialeus]

zxcts

How would you like a one way ticket to the Moon, and verify for your self?

The Soviets verified it in the '70's, why can't you believe it?

[nicogum]

The reporter is a moron saying, 'Phoenix will remain on Mars for the next 90 days.' Then what? It's off to Jupiter? Phoenix aint goin' anywhere.

[JQourydxyz]

true...

[Props2u]

haha true. she shouldve said its expected to send back data for 90 days. Bad wording in that report.

[4evermeX]

Wow, what a wonderful thing! now what?Do you think that martians or extraterrestrials are going to gived up their planets to selfish,egocentric humans go already are polluting,trashing Earth and waging war among themselves? Not with out a fight. I pray to God almithy to give us humans our lessons so we can change our bad ways and save our only homes.

[Aiursrage2k]

Spacecrafts will be useful for the future... people saying its a waste are dumb short term thinkers

[datzfast]

if i were looking for life on mars i would gently heat the ice to room temp. and examine

it with a microscope. Nasa, will heat the ice to 1800 degrees and measure the concentration

of different atoms present. then, they will do my test on a future mission. that way the never ending saga will continue and the nasa buget will have a life of its own.

[datzfast]

just remember, most of the contracts for nasa hardware goes the the lowest bidder. but again, remember its nasa that decides how to spend its budget.

[datzfast]

nasa gets to decide which technology to use through carful study and evaluation. testing

and evaluating hardware used in aerospace companies, military aerospace divisions, comercial aircraft companys and medical reserch universities.

[datzfast]

your wright, its not nasas mission to develope

new technology. so where do the new inovations come from, answer the private sector.

[ferch0o0]

Nasa is looking for Petroleum in other plates i hope they find lol

[WAKINGUPAMERICA]

check out this spacecraft " TR-3B " just do a search anywhere

[duba3988]

Hope they find life there, that would end a lot of this fantasy stuff.

[tubester4567]

Do they got Macca's up there?

[tubester4567]

They should plant some trees and grass then we can go back ina few years and live there.

[batukhan]

In a few thousand years you mean? :P

[Zach1O8]

I went to JPL on a tour two weeks ago

[batukhan]

Good to know

[datzfast]

a bit of nasa knowledge, no technology is used by nasa unless it has a ten year track record of safety and reliabilty. this is for good reasons. to say that spin off technology

will benifit mankind is just nasa propaganda.

sorry nasa, fool me 1x shame on you. fool me

2x shame on me.

[IVisionLive]

I believe it is

Fool me once, Shame on me,

Fool me twice, Shame on you.

I believe.

[duba3988]

Fool me once, Shame on you,

Fool me twice, Shame on me.

[jpbalkenende]

Uh can't they just develop technology and use it a decade later? The notion that NASA doesn't develop any technology seems preposterous to me.

[Budvb]

I sure hope they found God on Mars on vacation, because we sure could be using him here on Earth!

[StellarCool]

I knew it was was going to be just fine after last years launch. JPL & NASA are on the ball! This will pave the way for more mars missions.Especialy if they find what they're looking for.

[blastdude12]

im sorry you feel that they are dumb cunts due that they are a hell of a lot smarter than you. people cant eat, thats a problem, a sad one but if nasa technology goes well in the long run it could give us great technology being able to help people. you need to think and not be so mean, plus its very immature. but at least you feel sympathy for those worse off unlike many. i hope they find life.

[khalifa987]

who gives a shit...people don't have food to eat these fools are trying to touch mars....dumb cunts

[saqib389]

Totally Agreed...!!!

[sattkopp]

btig: you say the mission is a waste. peolpe also said that a bout developing airplanes.

who cares about your rice (which is expensive because of overpopulation, not because of the NASA), when the knowledge humanity gains from this missions might help us to settle on different planets in a few hundred years?

sorry to say, but imho this is more important than people in a overpopulated world today dieing from hunger. this is about future generations.

[btigtime2]

Pretty Easy statement when your not the one dieing of Hungry.

If i remember right, it was a group of boys in a bycicle shop that invented the Airplane... The Airplane is another explain of a waste. Trains have proven to be a better technology.

If we do not start thinking about what we need to do in a post petro world, then your Mars mission will be very quickly forgotten in the face of your own hunger.

As far as Rocket Cars. Too much entery to make H and O to burn. Fine for a rocket

[datzfast]

i bet bert and dick the rutan bothers could put a man on mars for one hunderth the cost nasa will spend. remember when nasa was grounded. starship one flew into outer space.

when nasa is out of business mankind will still colonise the universe.

[btigtime2]

Wow, Thanks for the well thought out articulated comment and enjoy the pictures of yet more marsion desert at a million dollars a piece for the next 90 days.

Maybe when NASA could stop playing with their toys they could start figuring out ways to stop using petroleum to run our country... or maybe figure out new ways to fix our roads and bridges.

What a waste

[tazarl]

Rocket engines are the most environmentally friendly machines invented by man.

Maybe our cars should use rocket engines.

Space exploration is necessary in order to colonize planets and eventually take humans out of earth, which is severely depleted.

Would you choose to feed a few million people the a few years and risk extinction of the entire human race?

Or sacrifice a few million for the time being, so billions in the future can thrive in the stars.

[BanglaOcean]

United States (and NASA) has accomplished a most monumental event in our human history. Human beings are no longer bound to our mother earth from today. Let us hope the discovery Mars brings some positive benefits for all of humanity in the future. And let us hope there is no invasion of Mars or anything similar.

[oslexarkun]

Another great acomplishment by Nasa, and for man-kind!

[btigtime2]

Congrates on the huge waste of money. Thanks for making the bowl of rice just that more expensive for the rest of us.

You said Phoenix will remain of Mars for the next 90 days. Does it carry enough fuel and engines to blast off and go somewhere else? Was this just a first stop on a magical mystery tour?

Colossal faulure of expendures, but not as bad as the Military Industral Complex, or the Farm Bill, or the Department of Educaton or govenment pension system or Social security or ...

[funkalishous]

Well get your fat ass off of your computer and go feed some people you armchair general. NASA gets a lot of its funding from private donors. The govt has cut off a lot of funding. If you want money to stop being wasted, try cutting military expenditures. Don't mess with space travel.
