Curiosity on Mars

[GunnyGene]

But we'll have to wait till Thur. to find out what it was the rover found on Mars. :)

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity has apparently found something intriguing on Mars, and the space agency will unveil the discovery Thursday (June 7).

The space agency revealed few details about what will be announced Thursday, but the "live discussion" will feature "new science results from NASA's Mars Curiosity rover," according to a NASA announcement. Why all the secrecy? "The results are embargoed by the journal Science until then," NASA wrote in the statement.

That means NASA won't release any details until the press conference, which is scheduled for 2 p.m. EDT (1800 GMT) on Thursday. You can watch the Mars announcement live on Space.com, courtesy of NASA TV. The space agency did reveal the list of scientists who will be discussing the Mars discovery.

They're blurring the photos now so you can't quite see what they REALLY found...

Really? Well I guess some people will believe anything. I bet there are some people who think the rover never left our planet and all the pictures are taken on NASA’s back lot...

I wonder if they found any fossils in a dried up riverbed? Hmmm.... it’s possible.

Little green men? :roll:

I just saw the Rover yesterday, had to swerve to avoid it as it crossed I-10 between Phoenix and Tucson...

HA HA HA HA! Damn that Kilroy gets around.. Doesn't he? :mrgreen:

 

[Mus408]

I heard it was plastic water bottles!!!

 

[Snake45]

I never noticed before that Marvin has a red dot sight on his gun! :shock:

 

[Tallbald]

I never did find my house key lost back in college in '81. Maybe that's it. Don.

 

[6GUNSONLY]

I'm guessing its a Walmart sack.

 

[blume357]

or an empty can of Bud Lite....

which at least down here is the beer of litter bugs.

Maybe it's that B-17 I saw on the cover of "Weekly World News" about 25 years ago. :P

 

[Selena]

Perhaps it's Hilary's missing e-mails?

[Jeepnik]

Unless it's a '57 BelAir it's no big deal.

Snake,

I'm not one who wishes to correct folks on anything as I mostly need correction however, Marvin doesn't own a gun. His is the proud owner of the only Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator in the galaxy. Been waiting for it to come on Gunbrokers for a while now :)

I have to say that back in the day Marvin was my favorite Looney Toon Character ..... I actually saw a Marvin doll at a customers house many years ago... I coveted that thing.

Well, NASA finally revealed what was found - "possible" carbons, aka the building block of life (aka: Kilroy WAS there ! :mrgreen: )

Never-the-less, we have never discovered organic molecules other than on Earth, until now. This is significant. It means that life is likely to exist beyond Earth. Wrap your noggin around that.

We should be careful what we wish for...we might not like what we find out there...and it might not like us.
