Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
Given the republican party is unable to commit any money to the space program, I've heard many calling for its dismantling after Columbia and after bush's speech, I doubt any of his plan will happen.

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
Sure hope they restore contact with the rover. Those Mars missions seem to have a lot of bad luck...

I sure hope if they can figure out what's wrong with it they'll be able to fix it (if it's software of course. ) |

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
darn, those time-traveling souveneer hunters stole another rover. Or did they put too much AI in the software and the rover decided to start it's own colony of mechoids? hmmmm.
Cheers! |

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
So we're going to the moon to make Helium 3? Why can't we make Helium 3 here? Does going to Mars next require the use of Helium 3? Will Halliburton get the contract for developing the Moon? Does inhaling Helium 3 make my voice 3 times funnier? When is Major Tom comming home? If the Chinese get to the moon first, will they play joke, will they put pee pee in our Coke (or Helium 3)?
Just more things that make you go hmmm.

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
Helium 3 is very expensive to produce, and is not readily abundant on the Earth. It is abundant on the Moon though.
