Anyway, I've been seeing a lot of things posted across the web lately about our closest neighboring planet, Mars.
What's going on? Well, have you heard of MARS ONE? It is a not-for-profit organization that plans to establish a human settlement on Mars in the year 2023. And new crew will arrive every two years, leading to the growth of the colony. Cool, eh? What was once fiction is becoming our reality. The only catch is, once you leave Earth, you will not be coming back. Here's more information.
Plus, NASA is looking at the idea of HIBERNATION for those traveling to Mars in the future. Not exactly cryogenics, but a first step. Here's an article on Space.com.
And while we on Earth are trying to get to Mars, there is a new study that suggests life on Earth may have originated on the Red Planet. Learn more at Space.com.
So, are we voyaging to a new planet, or simply returning home?
I find all of this not only fascinating, but inspiration for so many stories. How about you?
