Robot Curiosity landed on Mars yesterday & NASA says people should be able to move there by 2025, hopefully. How do you feel about that?

Best answer!

this is perhaps a case of of global A.D.D we should focus our energy and money on correcting the problems that face us on the planet that we already reside ,if we cant get it done here what gives us the arrogance or the right to go and mess it up somewhere else.

yes, and where'd they get the 2 billion $ $ to finance this electronic expedition ? Our country is broke, and greatly in debt. The large cities are deteriorating .....especially the schools.

How much will Home Depot charge to deliver a load of lumber for my house? That's a lot of mileage!

they are saying it going to take about 1/2 million to get there & its going to be so expensive that people might look to just move there.

I am against space exploration. Its messing with nature.It is a fact, that there is so much debris floating around in space that was left behind . It is certainly not a good thing to disturb our solar system. I think it may also have something to do with our change in global weather.

It seems that litter gets thrown around in space, just like it does here on earth. :(

I think there is a lot to learn from going there not just as explorers but could our planet go the same way as Mars has done, Also I think we will find that at one time in its past Life did exist on Mars but is now long gone extinct, maybe we can learn what happened and not go extinct ourselves.

what makes the diff? we are spening millions of dollars to explore a dead planet. just what do they expect to learn? those big bucks could be going to help starving people instead of being used to go to a dead ass planet to learn what? whats the knowledge need for? nothing. to satisfy a curiosity.

Not too much Washington. Matter of fact they cut back on space exploration funding. It's the very rich funding. I believe the guy that started Paypal is putting a lot of money into getting in to outer space.

Compared to a trip to the South Pole on earth….I would go for the South Pole…I have not gone to the South Pole because I don’t like the cold….Mars is less hospitable than the South Pole….I would not go to Mars, they don't have anything there, not even air…..OK, if the earth blew-up we would all rather be on Mars….so when the earth blows up I’ll go to Mars so don’t threaten me with the earth blowing up because I know it’s just a trick to get me on Mars so you can have earth for yourself.
