I have a totally different look at space exploration because of that video. What an excellent speech about why space exploration is important to humanity. | ||

I think this is amazing. Space has always been an interest to me, and having an event like this is awesome to witness. | ||

Unless I'm mistaken none of the Apollo mission did any serious drilling to see what kinds of minerals might be hiding under the surface. Of course I might be under estimating all those fancy cameras owned by our government. Obligatory: Blow Up the Moon Edit: If someone knows how to embed YT video, please let me know. | ||

I wouldn't be surprised if we found some form of life (bacterial, etc) on mars but NASA is too afraid to say anything because it would inherently destroy each and every religion, which are some of the largest money-making corporations on this planet. | ||

Hope the mission turns to be super successful so NASA gets more funding in the future. | ||

If they find any form of life they'd scream in joy and tell the entire world, if for no other reason than it would probably increase the spending NASA has for future Mars missions by an immense amount, and maybe reignite the excitement the world use to have for space. | ||

You greatly underestimate religions if you actually think that evidence of bacteria would destroy them. Religions deal in Souls not DNA. Not to derail the thread but as a Right-wing Christian even little green men wouldn't ruin my conviction. Science and God are very much so compatible, Just because of diverging interpretations of origins exist doesn't mean they are opposites. | ||
