This is why we need an international space program launched. Not just us and the russians....

Money will always be an issue when it comes to manned missions to mars, cause not only will the trip itself cost more then New York, California, and Isreal combined, But the money required to test things such as a life support system will be well in the Trillions....

With all the anti Western attitudes in the world, the US will surely never conduct any attempt at terraforming, unless the rest of the world supports and helps us.

But we still have Arabs and asians in the world that swear by religion and their beliefs, and would oppose such a space program....

We needa take care of that problem 1st.

Cause the only thing on NASA's agenda right now is protecting our damn satelites.....

I thought i was alone in the world when i look to the sky i think about things such as Terra forming, space travel, even the lifeforms they found on mars. (believe the name was Mallai) I have read countless books on mars and watched years worth of discovery channel shows  smile

Im glad to see you guys keep the discussion alive... Im glad to have registered here and hope to learn a thing or two about that mysterious part of life that most people shun and ignore....

The final frontier smile
