Default Curiosity - first images received from rover

Exploring another planet is "governmental charity" for you.

"Charity": giving money to the needed without any return.

Exploring another planet is useless for you then.

I am impressed by the scope of your vision. I am sure
the next U.S. president will find it a valid one and will scrap
this charity. Who needs that, "MARS" ???

There is no money to be made doing "MARS", let's better spend
money in important stuff like wars, wars and more wars.

Just to see craters rocks and sand again and again does not add
anything to my scrape book or get on TV.


Sure. Go back to your TV then, take a beer and watch football. That is
the maximum your tiny brain supports.

"Craters, rocks and sand?"

How boring.

New eyes on the Red Planet. It will be fun, I hope.
And I hope they send another one.
