Sand. Rocks. Wow.

Still billion$ down a rathole.

I look at it this way, WE PAID FOR THE THING, RELEASE THE DATA YOU BUNCH OF DRAMA QUEENS!

Nuff said.

Oh, yes. We await word of germs on Mars, it will be the biggest thing ever. As we deny that a growing baby in the womb is life.

I was going to post something profoundly funny and sarcastic. But I see other amateur comedians have already done that. Geez... maybe they have found something really cool? I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

The only life on Mars is the microbes Curiosity brought with it..
But.... some microbes may have escaped from previous missions as well..

sometime they might find some of this life and deem it indigenous.. after its “evolved”..

NASA JPL mission scientists have, again, rightly decided that nothing needs to be announced until further work is done

Translation: We are requesting more money.

[Vince Ferrer]

It would be nice if it is big news, but NASA has a history of hyping things, only to be disproved later. They are very good at PR.

What HAS Curiosity Discovered?

[Pride in the USA]

Fun!

We paid for this remote controlled Tonka toy so I think they should be publishing every damned thing.

The only information that should be kept from the public is security issues. Secrets like CIA agent’s true identity, the kenyan’s birth certificate and his latest boyfriend’s name.

air from Earth (which does contain methane) was trapped in the instrument

I was nowhere near that thing, I swear.
