Big Mars Announcement Coming

White House Briefed On Potential For Mars Life


The White House has been alerted by NASA about plans to make an announcement soon on major new Phoenix lander discoveries concerning the "potential for life" on Mars, scientists tell Aviation Week & Space Technology.

Sources say the new data do not indicate the discovery of existing or past life on Mars. Rather the data relate to habitability--the "potential" for Mars to support life--at the Phoenix arctic landing site, sources say.

It is in public domain so you can even burn it to DVD and sell it!

Oh ya, that was a real movie. What's better is that Mystery Science Theater 3k did an episode with it. It is fantabu-friggin-hilairous.

EDIT: Oh snap Drunk... nice find!

I'm embarrassed to say that I own that episode.

It would be easier to get excited about the prospect of landing humans on Mars if we weren't reeling from the expense of the "war on terror."
