Calm down Ninty ,

You will always have poeple of that mindframe in Washington. Part of the price one must pay for Democracy.

NASA has been working on a maned mission to Mars for quite some time now.
I've heard about settlement ideas for the moon before too.

I have also seen some things on probes to Jupiters moons. Similar to the rover.


All these things are in the works but NASA has taken some heat latley , and Americans have been focused on Iraq and anti terrorism fights.
Hopefully others will join in the "race" and we can leave this fighting each other crap to Ledgend and history.

We are too far along as a race to still fight wars. Just my opinion of corse.
