Perseverance - the hunt for life on mars
Perseverance - the hunt for life on mars
Perseverance will (hopefully) make a successful descent to the Martian surface tomorrow, and begin the search for evidence that life once existed on the planet.

Been watching this, too. Very interesting, but, then, I have always been an astronomy nut.

Re: Perseverance - the hunt for life on mars
I've always liked the comment that "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence" , in this context. They may not find any evidence. I think it could be months or years before we find out anything substantial. Or they could find irrefutable evidence next week.North Country Gal wrote: ↑Wed Feb 17, 2021 3:27 pmBeen watching this, too. Very interesting, but, then, I have always been an astronomy nut.

Re: Perseverance - the hunt for life on mars
That was a fun movie. Been an uncountable number of movies, myths, legends, stories, speculations, unexplained archeological artifacts, theories, books and even 20,000 yo rock paintings that have tackled the subject of life beyond this planet for many centuries.RanchRoper wrote: ↑Wed Feb 17, 2021 3:54 pmI have a bad feeling about this....

Re: Perseverance - the hunt for life on mars
I hope they do find something there. We need a place to send a few folks that are here making life miserable here for us good people. I have a list that will take a while to get through depending on how many seats are in that rocket.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......
