Any trace of water would be a stunning discovery! Of course, that means 914s would rust there too.

Keep us posted!

So wonder how much longer until we find life there? Seems to me with liquid water and other elements so similar to earth that the planet is ripe for life forms of some kind. Maybe some form of alien bacteria.

looks like if the water is acidic enought, it could easily stay fluid underground even in todays conditions. apparently, some regions have very active "flows" of water bursting out of cliffs and crater walls from time to time creating small flash-floods.

the two they imaged had about the volume of 3-5 swimming pools of water each ...

That's it, I'm moving. There's nothing like getting in on the ground floor. A baja 914 should do the trick. Anyone else coming? It can't be any hotter than Vegas.

Remember the speed limit in outer space is 186,000 mile/sec.

actually, that may not be true after all.

there's mounting scientific evidence that the speed of light has changed over the lifetime of the universe ...

In reality, what has been found is a giant astronomical sized 914 oil slick. Oft found on Earth on a much smaller scale. The 914 oil slick occurs after prolonged use of the engine, resulting in oil slicks caused by leaking seals.

The reports are still just coming in. NASA expects to have an estimate on the number of 914's populating the universe in a day or two, as the Space Agnecy's super computers crunch the numbers. Un-named sources speculate numbers in the billions and billions, and billi........

I was thinking with the thin atmosphere it might get hot with direct sunlight, but no such luck. It makes Wisconsin look toasty. Oh well, I'll have to wait until we colonize the moon.

this is awesome! when do travel agents start taking bookings?

I think they'll be pretty busy with Cuba once Castro kicks the bucket.

They have found noncarbon base life forms which are smarter than we are but are made more frail than us. They will try to take over the earth with sex gadgets and lawyers who will try to rule our planet.

Don`t have to wait for Castro to kick the bucket.
Cuba... 1/2 the price of Mexico,
Cuba... Beer by the keg... and FREE.
Cuba... Rhum... cheaper than water.
(One morning I caught the waiter washing his bar using a full bottle of Havana Club.)
Cuba... Sun, Hot, Beach, Food, Beer, Bikinis,
Going again this year for 2 weeks.

Sounds like fun.

A buddy of mine who is a huge Key West fan swears the next big thing will be the tourist industry in Cuba once Castro passes. He's thinking in reference to 50's era and has this crazy idea of investing in boats to shuttle the masses to and from the states.
