    Why does anyone want to visit Mars? Almost no oxygen in the Martian atmosphere. May or may not be H2O in sufficient quantity to support humans for more than a few months. Mars is just a vast cold desert. The more the Rovers rove the more that's apparent.

    But what was there long before humans walked the earth. And its not all desert. it has huge ice fields and some other things just look at some of the satellite pics of it they are outstanding.

    Mars is a test. Its a stepping stone you need to hop on to get across the stream. If you don't go there, you will always stay on your side of the stream and never see the other side.

    Apparently no streams presently exist on Mars. Whatever water exists may be contaminated by inorganic chemicals (e.g., arsenic, selenium) which are very difficult to remove. Meanwhile, here on Earth, humans are so focused on non-sustainable activities, like energy from fossil fuel, that no one thinks about whether the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere will decrease to a dangerously low level over the next 50 years.

    Oh come on, It's a metaphor. I know there are no known streams on Mars. All travel anywhere or anywhen is done as a series of steps, like going from stone to stone across a stream. Going to the moon, then to Mars then further, step by step. If you miss a step then you stop moving towards your destination. Energy is the same thing, step by step. Currently we're using mostly fossil fuels, if you miss that step the only place to go is back.

    Speaking of water and ice - Extraterrestrials are technologically advanced, right? Ever wonder why one of them doesn't steer a big icy comet right toward the Earth so the blast wave would destroy everything, like the icy comet that hit Siberia in 1908, but much larger?

    At the time of the dinosaurs, the earth was one giant, plant covered world. Oxygen levels were higher then. More plants equals more oxygen. Along came the ice age. Oxygen levels dropped. We adapted/evolved to survive the challenge. This planet has been in a state of global warming since the end of the ice age. (Why don't people get that!) That's why the glaciers melted. Land masses shifted. Deserts formed. The plants never returned to their former glory of covering the globe. As a result, oxygen levels stayed low. Currently it is at 21%. We evolved/adapted and are still here. We are still evolving.

    Maybe they dont mean any harm. Or just maybe they are the ones stopping them from hitting us in the first place.

    These dark, narrow, 100 meter-long streaks called recurring slope lineae flowing downhill on Mars are inferred to have been formed by contemporary flowing water. Recently, planetary scientists detected hydrated salts on these slopes at Hale crater, corroborating their original hypothesis that the streaks are indeed formed by liquid water. The blue color seen upslope of the dark streaks are thought not to be related to their formation, but instead are from the presence of the mineral pyroxene. The image is produced by draping an orthorectified (Infrared-Red-Blue/Green(IRB)) false color image (ESP_030570_1440) on a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) of the same site produced by High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (University of Arizona). Vertical exaggeration is 1.5.

    You just never know. Then again, where did the stories about Odin and Thor come from?

    You are very well informed about these things. A blind man can see that you take the time to get the info. Keep up the good work.

    Right...crystal clear mountain streams from last winter's snowfall flowing over limestone...etc.

    So there is less and less vegetation and who knows the state of the algae in the oceans that also produce oxygen. Don't worry be happy.
