Dunno how I can not make a "lame" joke when the OP started a thread saying we need to focus a lazer cannon on Mars or nuclear bomb the icecaps. It currently takes us 30 years to get to the damn planet, what makes anyone think we are anywhere near the kind of things you discuss anyways?

I think at some point terraforming might be possible, but for now it certainly is not. Posing the question "should we lazer cannon or nuke the ice" wont get a thread anywhere imo. I could be wrong but I would think it to be more realistic that we first develop a way of getting there adequately. Best to "cross that bridge" when we get to it kinda thing.

Hum, it would take us like 6 months to get there I think? I forget.

Currently reading "The Case for Mars" (thanks to, I think, HnR)HT for suggesting it in some thread ages ago, really interesting book) and yeah, we could definitely go there.


Didnt say we could not go there. You sure its 6 months? I somehow doubt that strongly.


that depends on the positioning of the planets when the spaceship starts from earth orbit.
I think during the last Mars mission, the started in a somewhat lucky and rare constellation, thus decreasing travelling time to 6 months iirc.

supposedly it should take 2.5 months, but this explains why it takes about 6-8

Send in Chuck Norris and Jack Bauer.
If they don't fight during transport (which would result in the end of the known universe anyways) they can do the work with ease, and with bare hands.
So there is no need to focus laser beam and we can keep BlueRay supplies for manufacturing PS3.

All we need actually is for the governor of California to join his middle fingers so his hand can fit the switch, and then push it.

It's going to be cool, but I am against the use of nuclear weapon for that end.

I'll volunteer to go too.


What do you mean "send" chuck goes there in his spare time.

Terraforming Mars is a must. The Moon and Mars are the obvious next steps. We need our eggs in two baskets at least if we are to survive as a species.

I found a picture of water on Mars. All other claims say there's only Ice but this one says otherwise:

What a loser {88}iNcontroL is. What conversational skills he has.

Imagine you are at a party having a good time watching something fun, then some fat guy who wasn't invited wedges in behind everyone and says, in what is most likely a very pretentious voice, "Optimus Prime wont like this. Not one bit." Everyone would look at him and then at each other, then shrug and pretend like they didn't hear.




LAWL I'M SORRY ><

EDIT: Omg... you beat me to it ><

Sounds good in theory, but finding the brave souls who would go out there for a year or so (was it a year to get to Mars? Or 3 years? I forgot) is going to be the hardest obstacle.

hahaha owned...


hey look at me, I really wanna fit in at TL and make everyone laugh so I make the same joke everyone else has made except in a different topic. Hey guys am I cool now? Can I get a star next to my name?

Hmm.. I'm guessing no and no? Inc was just being stupid at that time and people just go copy and paste the joke -- which was funny the first time, but not the second.

Anyways, it sounds interesting. Though I have no idea what would be an efficient method. We could melt a little bit of ice and send microwaves to Mars~

Wow that's a ridiculous philosophy. So all of history before your birth doesn't matter to you? And all of the future after your death doesn't matter to you? I think it's impossible for you to live your life like that; you must be hypocritical.
