Moon or Mars?
-
It won't be long until it will be the 50th anniversary of landing on the Moon. The last landing was in 1972 and then we just seemed to give up. Recently everyone seems keen on going to Mars, which is a nice goal... eventually. Where is the my retirement home on the Moon? Low gravity would be great. No bugs, snakes or home-security salesmen. An afternoon's flying with artificial wings in the Big Dome to pass the time and then home to my relaxing chair in front of the holographic TV showing re-runs of cool, old Sci-Fi movies! I think we should get the moon-base(s) up and running before going to Mars. Buzz Aldrin agrees with me. What do you think?
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
Mars: A great place to raise your kids! In fact, it's not too warm and there's nobody to meddle with them. A working moonbase would be a more practical place to start though.
