They say life walshie but what do they mean, they don't explain that part, they haven't seen this water, haven't tested it, they think it's water, strong evidence they say, lol look at the test they done to come to this conclusion, as I said give us more grant money, keep us in a job.

How do we know that life on Mars wouldn't prefer sulphuric acid...or that they even need liquid at all? We're going on what we know mate. Life here on Earth feeds on everything but still needs water to fill the cells Finding water basically means life shouldn't be far behind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 13,256 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) To make it clearer what they are saying this is, is this water is the evaporated brine of ancient oceans on Mars. Edited September 28, 2015 by mushroom Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it's justified, billions of dollars being spent all to desperatley try to prove there religion evoloution, when the money could be spent far better elsewhere, I don't know what you mean by moving forward, if you mean total recall style, lol, I thinks its an agenda, or maybe they'll shift the unwanted out there, an they stay here, ha Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't you want to know francie? Aren't you the slightest bit curious because I know I am. As for the money argument it its just numbers and lies money has no real value in the big scheme of things . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm all for the truth mate, but there ain't no truth in it, not yet anyway, its speculation, lol religion has nothing to do with space exploration, I just think the money could be better spent that's all. As you say to me no evidence, were evidence for this, they have none, Lol mush your typical militant atheist drivel is funny, you as typical as the homo sapien sapiens on reddit, funny but.

mushroom 13,256 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) Ya not worth my breath on this topic pal Basically for those interested; extremely briney water is not the best chance of complex life but it is from evidence on Earth the best chance for simple cell organisms called extremophiles we have discovered to date.
