Thirsty?

Post by deps »

NASA found evidence that there once was water in liquid form on the surface of Mars.
Do you think they will find life, or fossils of it?
(In any form; worms, bacteria, plants, whatever)

I think they'll find beer.

No... i think they'll find at least evidence of some life that existed there once. Which will be huge if they do. Yay for NASA, even though they waste money still using the space shutte. My ion propelled design is better :-P

The two major competitors in the XPrize contest should be doing launches soon.

I haven't seen Carmack's ship, but the other one that the billionaire dude built his own airport/facility for looks sweet.
Crud, how do I do this again?

>here< is Carmack's ship. Now that doesn't look like something done by one of my all-time-favourite-game-coding-wizards.
Where is the BFG? The shotguns? How about one big fat minigun on it? :)

Does saigumi got some links to images on the billionaire dude's rocket?

Yeah.. this is the one.

Thanks for the link, I hadn't rechecked the xprize.org page in years. Last reports is that Armadillo's and Scaled's are the two closest to completion and will launch this Spring.
