I believe in hummanity and it's technology, creativnes and genius. I believe that Curiosity will land without any big problems. And even if it don't... Well, creativity and genius will help try again, without making previous errors I will hold my tumbs

Thanks everyone for posting. Baby steps on Mars can lead to human steps faster than you think.

Here are some links for future reference. If you here anything in the future about aliens[X(] or water[8D] PM me so we can share it with the world. Otherwise I will let this thread quietly fade into the sunset.

Have fun exploring .
