Nasa is hoping to send astronauts to Mars within 15 years

Speeding up efforts to put astronauts back on the Moon will enable Nasa to bring a Mars landing closer, the space agency’s chief has said.’s desire to put humans back on the Moon by the year 2024 would provide an opportunity to test its technology and capabilities before carrying out a mission to land on Mars by 2033.

However, Mr Bridenstine admitted that the agency was working on an amendment to its budget request to deal with the accelerated shift towards the Moon.‘We want to achieve a Mars landing in 2033, but in order to do that we have to accelerate other parts of the programme, the Moon is a big piece of that,’ the administrator told the congressional Science, Space and Technology Committee.‘By moving up the Moon landing four years… we can move up the Mars landing.

Last week, US vice president Mike Pence told Nasa he wanted the US to return to the Moon within five years, specifically the lunar south pole, which ‘holds great scientific, economic and strategic value’. ‘America will once again astonish the world with the heights we reach and the wonders we achieve, and we will lead the world in human space exploration once again,’ he said at a meeting of the National Space Council in Huntsville, Alabama.

Sherlock Holmes science, it is obvious. If it happened here on Earth, it is hardly a leap of imagination, to think that it could have happened elsewhere. My fart was trapped in Earth's atmosphere and escaped when Falcon9 was launched. It was traveling in space as living bio-chemical agent before it was landed on asteroids that shot into Mars' atmosphere. What you see in the photo is my mutated FART. ... My BS is better than yours.
