Balloons on Windy Mars
Somebody told me that the wind on Mars is wicked - wicked enough to
carve evil shapes into rocks. If the WIND is that ferocious, how was NASA able to PERFECTLY aim and land an AIR FILLED BALLOON lander onto the Mars surface? The computer simulation is just as silly as the 5 o'clock evening news announcers - bragging about NASA's "sophisticated" and "high tech" equipment. Care to expand on that? Nah... it's entertainment - just like the rest of this crap. yawn Wake me when reality TV hits the newsroom. |

yawn Wake me when good, solid science education is taught in the public
schools again and not the pseudoscience that they are gobbling up from these so-called educational television programs! I actually had someone ask me the other day how many stars were in the rings of Saturn! He then followed that up with a question that asked what Sun does Mars orbit. Dark Skies, Patrick C.

yawn Wake me when reality TV hits the newsroom. Reality TV is about as real as WWF wrestling. The "show" you see is bits and pieces of what happened. The reality is clipped and edited to make a real exciting "show". Sorry to burst your bubble. -Chris |

Or just go to one or the other of these two very silly places on the Internet for the last word on Mars..... : ) 1) www.coasttocoastam.com The weeknight home of George "Ned Flanders" Noorey and Art "PT Barnum" Bell.... 2) www.enterprisemission.com The home of Richard "Face on Cydonia" Hoagland. True science for the ultra-paranoid and those unfortunates who are 2 cans short of a 6-pack. |
