So what do we know about MARS so far?

[LOLyourFace]

1. Any traces of water?
2. If yes, any traces of life? (even at microscopic level?)
3. Anything worth mentioning besides rocks and dirt?
4. Any cool substances or materials that aren't here on earth?
5. Anything unexpected/surprising?

 

[Evadman]

it's red, and has 2 mostly working probes from the US on it.

 

[speed01]

It's far away...

Speed

 

[HappyPuppy]

There are no electrical outlets to power the Rovers and little green men keep sneaking up behind them and breaking off the antennaes.

1. Yes.

2. No, but they are not looking for that. Perhaps next misson. A good question is, how to identify life on Mars?

3. What do you expect?

4. No, And no chance of it either. Same universe, same periodic table, same minerals.

5. They made it safely to the surface?

 

[OIKOS]

i kno it is the 2nd smallest planet in the solar system...

Pretty much agree. Except that for 4, there are substances on Mars that are more plentiful and easier to get to than on Earth, although they do exist on Earth.

joke is on you, pluto isn't a planet

We'll never really learn anything. Marvin hijacked our rover a few days ago and now it's sending us only what he wants. Expect the same thing to happen to the Opportunity in a few days. Also expect us never to find anything interesting.

yes it is a planet

Pluto is usually the ninth planet from the Sun. Its path crosses with Neptune's so sometimes it is the eighth
It's the smallest planet, with a radius of 1,160 km.

Not this debate again... I think it is generally accepted that pluto is a planet.

EDIT: Thanks Anubis!

"No WMDs have been found on Mars thus far, but the President is holding out that they will be found despite the technical difficulties our forces have been having with our probes..."

"Ahh, I mean, Iraq, huh huh huuuuuuuhh..."

There are NO traces of water on mars and none have been found. Only evidence that there may be.
Here is the proof.
