Another Clue That Mars Was Once A Water-Rich Planet

Another Clue That Mars Was Once A Water-Rich Planet:

Evidence that Mars once held water simultaneously excites and frightens me. I love that Earth is not even unique within our own little solar system, but I also wonder about the eventual fate of our beautiful blue planet.

"Then God said, 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.'" —Genesis 1: 26

Some may take that as instructions to care for our world. Some may take it as an excuse to do whatever we please. Better to ignore the Bible's confusing babble, realize our relationship to all living things, have respect for life, and exercise our power judiciously.

Life on earth isn't easy -- for a space man.:

Astronauts have a difficult time readjusting to life on earth after time spent in microgravity.

This is only the beginning. How amazing is that? Prosthetics will go from being reparative to, I believe, one day being voluntary and augmentative. I just can't see how this won't happen. The only real question is, how far will it go? Once neuroprosthetics enter the picture, how much of us will remain human? I can't wait to find out the answers to these questions.

We can at the very least be honest and just admit it.

This is a very interesting documentary about a lady who interviews people just before being executed in China.

Perhaps I'm accustomed to stereotypes, but the "killers" featured were not what I imagined they'd be.

97.1% of climate researchers agree, not only is there climate change, human activity is the cause of this change. NINETY-SEVEN POINT ONE PERCENT.

And then there's Sarah Palin's opinion.

Moore, Oklahoma has a terrible history of tornados. In 1999, Moore had a twister with the highest wind speeds ever found on the surface of the earth - estimated to be over 300 mph. That's over 100 mph faster than yesterday's EF4 (160-200 mph) tornado.
