What do you think of the very first real video footage of Mars?

[blondfrog]

It's awesome I love NASA

Derka derka Elon Musk is a bad man rant.

If life started being created on Mars I would def volunteer to live there.

The very first thing I would do on Mars is poop or have sex there.

Video and images are fake.

Mars is not round its flat dumb dumb dumb

squirrel drinking milk

[invalid1]

Man we have been having real videos, footages on Mars. For a VERY long time.

I think I am frustrated with the way the media overeated to preservance landing. It just shows you how hungry the media is for new stories no matter how normal they should be. Rovers have been landing on Mars for a very long time, by this time it should be very normal, we had pics from Curiosity n from different photo machinary. We had robots orbiting Jupiter, Saturn, Caseny, Juno... we had Voyagers. We had up close photo of PLUTO for God's sake! So nothing new!

What should be controversial is the next step, we wanna see people on Mars. We wanna see real investment in the planet.

We've been stuck following up with Elon for the next big move, because we feel as public and intellectuals that we had enough information and accomplishments in the planet, to be surprised later on that we still not over landing another probe, with Hilocapter attachment! Which will not get us so further away scientifically from where we are right now.

[WhiteSteve]

Impressive to accomplish, I’m just not sure if humans, or any species, are meant to leave their own planet and cause any sort of interference on another one. Looks like a whole lot of nothing on Mars though, so maybe this will be harmless if humans make it there. But I’m not all that impressed with what humans have done to Earth, so the idea of fucking up a second planet is pretty wild, lmao

[blondfrog]

Well if they colonize Mars they are planning on only putting people with high level science degrees up there. Primarily in Astronomy and physics. However in a 100 years who knows lol.

[WhiteSteve]

Once McDonald’s and Walmart open up there, it’s a wrap on Mars haha

[blondfrog]

That's how you know you made it. I agree lmfao

[Thedivinechic]

I have an idea. Send everyone that doesn't care about the environment, are shallow, and dislike animals to mars. As a test. If there's nothing to destroy there... Then maybe they'll be forced to create life there... and maybe just maybe they will try to maintain it because they worked so hard to fix it. 😆😅🤭

[blondfrog]

@Thedivinechic If anything with all the smart people they are gonna put on Mars and in the upcoming years all the people who will go up there to colonize it it might end being better than Earth eventually.

[Thedivinechic]

Everyone floating in space suits lmao 😂

[SueShe]

Just one more sad day for the entire humanity.

Mankind is not satisfied to just pollute our earth, No, it has to be the outer planets as well and all that for what?

Right, strictly nothing! It is just to demonstrate vanity and shallowness of an agency and directly of an entire nation.

There was no need to further pollute other planets. Humans should clean and take care of the earth first before planning on polluting the rest or our solar system.

Our entire civilization is sick.

[Thedivinechic]

I agree.

[blondfrog]

Wow you sound very pessimistic. Why all the hate?

[SueShe]

Because you think that the way we handle the planet is something to be happy about?

When morons like Elon Musk find nothing better than to send a car in outer space? When the plastic is polluting the oceans? When a US megalomaniacs billionaire that is also a total failure as a president only thinks of his pocket rather than to do something constructive for the planet?

Yes, those losers make me mad. But is there anything else to expect from those nationals? Of course not!

[blondfrog]

I am not disagreeing with you on that, but you can't deny what Elon Musk is doing with his money is way better than what most rich people would do it with... no? At least he is creating progress and big progress. Earth is fucked up but not all of it is bad and it could be much worse.

[SueShe]

Elon Must is destroying the earth just as fast as others do it.

How do you think that the batteries of his electric cars are produced? Do a little research and find out how the lithium is produced and entire areas destroyed so this moron can build "clean" batteries.

Bolivia has 9 million tons of identified lithium resources buried beneath its famed salt flats. This is the world's second-largest lithium deposit, behind Argentina's salt flats.

Guess who is destroying those salt flats to extract the mineral? The destruction of the planet elsewhere to produce clean car for a rogue nation!

[SueShe]

*Elon Musk" of course. Let's not blame an innocent person!

[blondfrog]

I agree Tesla cars are a waste but this Mars project has serious potential. Also wouldn't using the Earths resources be a good thing? What else are resources for? Batteries used to help humans is a good thing.

[SueShe]

Using the earth's resources are only good for a few rotten politicians that can put the money in their own pockets.

Do you think that the thousands upon thousands of people that will have to be "relocated" against their will so that the currently protected area can be reassigned as mine for Musk and the likes will see a single dime of that enormous income?

Also, what kind of potential does this Mars project have if not to have American supremacy on other planets? Is it not enough that the US want to rule the entire world? Do they also want to rule the solar system? Did the US not just create another interstellar force for that very purpose?

[Iakai]

No ones being relocated to Mars, the atmosphere is 95% carbon dioxide, not even a full 1% of it is oxygen, it’s also significantly thinner than earths. The air pressure is 587 pascals which is 0.6 percent that of earths, so you may as well be standing directly in the vacuum of space, cause it isn’t much different. The thin atmosphere cannot deflect harmful ultraviolet radiation, the list goes on and on, we will never live on Mars, or any other planet, the nearest star to us is 300,000 times further than the sun, and takes even light 4.3 years to travel there. We will die on earth, I also don’t agree that we’re polluting anything, would you rather stare up into the sky and wonder? It just sounds like you like complaining to me, without any educated, factual knowledge of what you’re speaking about, well I just informed you so your welcome.

[blondfrog]

@Iakai Interesting facts.

[SueShe]

@Iakai Oh I am not referring to being relocated to Mars for those poor peasants and other 3rd. class citizens but to be forcefully relocated elsewhere in the country so that there is no opposition to the project to enrichen a few government officials and CEOs.

They would not want to be disturbed by simple humans coming in the way or their billions would we? If worse comes to worse, a bullet each of those resisting should do the job. It would be much cheaper for Elon Musk and the likes.

[msc545]

If it makes you feel better, NASA takes very *extreme* precautions to make sure they are not sending any pollutants of any kind to Mars or any place else they travel to.

[Iakai]

You do realize they use highly radioactive plutonium metal in the curiosity rover right? there is no worse form of pollution lol. Radioactive decay of one of the most fissiant isotopes created by man would contend for the highest contamination reward in my opinion. Lol.

[Iakai]

Even better yet the half life of pu-239 isotope is somewhere in the ballpark of 25,000 years? So long after the rover is rotting in the dust of Mars it will be highly radioactive.

[msc545]

@Iakai An extremely small quantity of it that is well contained.

[msc545]

It is not like the whole planet was contaminated.

[blondfrog]

@sueshe You started complaining the waste of lithium. Did you know that phone you are using right now uses lithium? Did you know that your pc uses lithium. So pick your poison. .

[blondfrog]

@Iakai Would that radiation be higher than the atom bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

[SueShe]

That is true. My 1992 model Nokia 1011 uses a lithium battery and that is why I have never ever upgraded it. Because that battery was built before I was even born and could realize the devastating effects on the planet.

Oh, I forgot, the battery on the Nokia 1011 is a Nickel-Cadmium battery :-) Still very polluting.

[blondfrog]

Wow so you are one of the few people who use a flip phone still?

[blondfrog]

So do you not use a laptop or computer either?

[SueShe]

I do use an old laptop with a removed battery (it died on me) but connected to the mains.

My old Nokia is on the brink and I will probably no change it when it dies. Furthermore, the 2G network will be decommissioned pretty soon :-(

[blondfrog]

At least you are not a hyprocite.

[AshleyTaylorDanny]

I don't know... pretty clear picture considering how far away its suppose to be

[blondfrog]

Your saying its fake?

[AshleyTaylorDanny]

It could be. Might be a big conspiracy you see. NASA may actually be a NWO entity led by the elite oh and let's not forget Trump is in charge. They actually putting up their own space later to combat the Jewish Space Laser that starts forest fires. The Mars video was created by Disney. I'm sure someone else could ring in with additional conspiracy...

Nah just kidding... I think it's pretty cool

[Darklydarkened]

What's that even supposed to mean? They're not making direct broadcasts or anything. The picture's clarity would be determined by two things, your data quality, and your camera. As long as you can transmit data properly, you'll be fine.

[FictionalCharacter]

Why does mars look like Death Valley in California?

[blondfrog]

Lol yeah. What are your thoughts though?

[FictionalCharacter]

It looks like desert California and someone dropped a little control toy car

[blondfrog]

Who do you think the first president of Mars would be after years of colonization?

[SlightlyEccentric]

Let's have a moment of honesty: Is colonizing Mars really the solution when we can barely take care of our own planet? Even then, I doubt it would be an economically viable venture. Who will pay for people to get there? Taxpayers. Who will be paying for the importing and exporting of goods to and from Mars? Taxpayers. Its already proven expensive just to get to the Moon but now we wanna go for Mars next? This seems like a really bad idea.

[blondfrog]

Well maybe if so many of our taxes didn't go to even more ridiculous stuff like prisoners, our military. Gov spends 900billion for our military. Most of NASAS money comes from charity or funding.

[IAMNathanael]

Wasn't that from last year? I was really excited to see it

[blondfrog]

No last wekk.

[IAMNathanael]

Oh, I must be misremembering something then

[Sevenpointfive]

nothing tells me this is real other than a test for a rover landing on earth. i saw the movie

[elly91]

It's incredible if you think about... technology had gone this far to enable us to explore planets but not far enough to prevent still to this day bad viruses from spreading and threatening the human race...

[Sonorous]

My first thoughts were:

Oh wow okay

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

It's awesome and if you listen closely you can hear sound on Mars

[blondfrog]

Who do you think the first president of Mars would be?

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

@blondfrog I think Biden will take the credit that he was the first US President that a spaceship made it to Mars but who knows? I could be wrong?

[blondfrog]

How about an actual president when we colonize Mars? It's just a fun game. I Want to know your take on it.

[exitseven]

This is a technological miracle. Even if we never go back to Mars again, the technologies developed to make this possible will have long lasting effects on everyone.

[Smashingdoozy]

I think it's pretty awesome, it's nice seeing hd pictures of how it looks.

[Iron_Man]

Cool beans. so how long would it take Americans to get there and land?

[blondfrog]

I have no idea lol.

[VIVANT]

I thought it was the Grand Canyon 😂😂😂😊

[VIVANT]

It’s several 10” degrees up there... I wonder of the previous inhabitants destroyed the protective layer between Mars and the sun with technology and that’s gonna be 🌎... In the future. Some other planet will come and find our planet inhospitable warm with no prominent life form left.

[blondfrog]

Wow you actually shared an option. This is a rare occasion.

[blondfrog]

If say after 30-50 years you see how colonized its become. With trees, water, oxygen even after eventually not needing a dome anymore. Would you think about living in Mars?

[VIVANT]

Several 100 degrees*

It’s too hot for humans do you imagine they will colonize it with fishy air conditioning can’t even manage electric for earthlings during a snow storm

Hmm yeah I imagine eventually some planet will be where the rich snd felons go. The points will be left to work on the left over crumbling earth with ears and fingers faking off from toxicity bc of intractable atmospheric...

I think before a planet they’ll just go up in mega cruise space ships to escape the dumpster they created with their sea cruise ships etc

I really wonder how many planets are Inhabitable now but we’re not always but “intelligent” life did a bug stupid. 🤔

Do I not usually answer is that what you meant? 🧐

[VIVANT]

Those Lottie ducts in the ground that look like old dried up streams I really wanted to see some sign of a stream. At 200 and something degrees F how quickly does water evaporate... I suppose depends on humidity overall Mars looked kinda dry.

[blondfrog]

I thought Mars if further away from the sun? I do hear and read that Mars nights are cold though. I just meant you stay on the fence with your opinions and not actually state how you feel about a topic. Thanks for sharing :)

[KrakenAttackin]

It's no surprise the women of GAG are not impressed with the Mars mission, as it doesn't involve selfies, Instagram, or other attention whoring.

[Jack9949]

😂😂😂

[sheezuskist]

Very first from this mars journey? Is that what you mean?

[Paul09]

Incredible! It does seem like there might have been life at sone point. But we barely have explored our own planet. We need more deep sea exploration.

[Guanfei]

Watched that video I don't know how many times. I'm absolutely amazed by it.
Honestly if tomorrow I could leave to go there, I would.

[Shihab-91]

Its awesome hope humans won't be able to live there and destroy it 😌

[Danksauce25]

Cool... hopefully we find something out there that helps shed some light on all the unknowns, but its awesome just to be able to see and hear it :)

[chriscdi]

humans are so invasive no cap 😂

humans: yaaaay

martians: why do these assholes keep sending these fucking things here

[jshm2]

You mean there was fake footage before?

[blondfrog]

Not fake per say but like a video CGI or animated video and pictures.
