mars and moons and more - oh my...

[wytchcroft]

exciting times in space just now, with new images pointing to
FLOWING seasonal water on Mars (yes, yes, the homeworld!) ...


read article:
and with dramatic theories that two moons collided to form the main moon
still orbiting the Earth today... 
read article:
 

of course the shadow of funding hangs over all the space stories that reach popular public media
(esp now the shuttle has retired) but still...

(a word of advice to the interested: googling Mars and Water will get you many, many previous reports related but old - whilst googling 'two moons' may wind up with you reading about 3753 Cruithne some of which were written before, or in ignorance of, the true Luna status it was granted - though this is again being debated, sigh -.)

I remember that I heard something about two moons when I was a young girl///

But thanks for the Mars...

'Is there any life on Mars... or there is not... the science had no clear answer..." (one probabaly need Soviet backround to smile on this sentence, since this is a line from old soviet comedy Carnival Night), but there is always exciting to have a chnce to know it PROBABLY exists

i can imagine many SF stories concerning the moons... there are probably cults even LOL!
yes, yes, the doomed Luna dwellers came to Earth and founded Atlantis.... or possibly got frozen in the Arctic or became monks in Tibet...

in our fiction Arctic is reserved for secret Nazi base :)))))

I think moon devellers rather appeared as Fomori!!!!
