yes, this might encourage the US space industry to build faster, better, and cheaper designs and spur them into creating new project

#978 Re: Martian Politics and Economy » Money,Martian currency,whose face on the marsbill? » 2004-03-07 02:16:06

no, these images are from humour sites

I think Olympus mons on the "Martian-dollars" would be a great idea

it might be a bad idea to put religion quotes, but I think astronauts quote seem OK!!

So if we are ever to settle the place we should also issue a note, a good stable currency.



Should the martian bill be backed up with gold and mineral reserves, like other nations do.
Whose face should go on the note, aldrin, yuri, titov, glenn, Lowell, Schiaparelli, the Ming Emperor, H G well, Bush? Or maybe we should NOT put people, is it egotistical to put people.
Like the Euro note, maybe we should put structures on the note, the rover probe, the martian pyramids...Should we also level peg the martian currency to the dollar

What should we call the  new mars bill. The martian-pound, the Nuyen, the marscredit, the martian dollar?
What type of banking system should mars have?

what do u think?

I know there have been discussion on the mars currency before, but this is about whose face goes on the 1 martian bill

#982 Re: Planetary transportation » SUV's on Mars? - Making it sound simple, got me wondering » 2004-03-05 08:04:45

SUVs are u kidding?

we need much better high tech transports than Suv

Those over sized hunks of junk devour fuel, we have enough wars on earth because of people trying to get gas and petrols to pump into their fuel eating antique cars. :hm:

"Extrasolar" planets are familiar, but this one's orbit is promising. Its wide path hints that its star, 55 Cancri, might also harbor a Goldilocks planet: one whose size, temperature and composition are all just right for life. Current science spots only planets so massive they tug stars into a telltale "wobble." "You could put an Earth around 55 Cancri and we wouldn't know it was there," says Geoff Marcy, a planet hunter at UC, Berkeley.

Life may well have manifested[4] on a warmer and moister Mars some three to four billion years ago. However, if Martian life still exists, it may be microbes which consume rocks and water and which live deep beneath north Alaska. Richland's Pacific Northwest Laboratory, which found them, has been studying these lifeforms, which can survive in Marslike conditions between 85 degrees Centigrade and 113 degrees Centigrade

#989 Re: Terraformation » Should we colonize Europa and Ganamedie! - Nice place to live » 2004-03-03 23:36:43

its a great idea, much better than the moon.

but how stable are these jupiter moons, plus there are high radiation levels from jupiter

#990 Re: Human missions » china - manned spaceflight » 2004-03-03 22:55:24

China is now saying that they will have an unmanned lunar orbiter within 3 years and an unmanned lunar sample return by 2010.

yes, it might happen even sooner.

#991 Re: Human missions » How do you feel about going to Mars? - Survey of oppinion about a Mars mission » 2004-03-03 22:52:11

A manned mission is a great idea, it will help greatly improve the space industry

#992 Re: Life support systems » information about the atmosphere on mars? - how are sun radiations filtered? » 2004-03-03 11:47:10

Thats why they think building underground is a better idea, plus most work may be done tunneling and try to find this frozen trapped ice, and other minerals

#993 Re: Martian Politics and Economy » Should God be Exported to Mars? » 2004-03-03 05:40:58

don't worry, they'll all be exported, the Hindu scriptures, the Vatican, Buddism....

Just as it happened in the past, the South American missionaries, the Crusades, the expansion of the Ottoman Empire, the quest for the grail, the spread of Buddism.
One of our main futrue explorers and conquerors may be the men and women preaching the divine way.

:bars:
Civilisations have always looked for answers asked questions about the meaning of life. It will give the religion groups a great oppurtunity for trying to new people on new worlds.
