Believe it or not, NASA has at least one employee whose job is environmental protection on Mars. Seriously.

At the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Catharine A. Conley has a lofty job title: planetary protection officer.

Thousands, millions, sometimes many times more, bacteria travel across the solar system on spacecraft. Earth has been invading Mars since November 1971, when the Soviet Mars 2 lander crashed. Certainly life exists on Mars today — the microbes that have hitchhiked from Earth. Even in the harsh environs of Mars — cold, dry, bombarded by ultraviolet light — it takes many years for all of them to be killed off.

The concern is that some of them might not only survive but thrive.

There are no animals on Mars. No Martian rabbits. No Martian deer, no Martian antelope, no Martian Pomeranians. There are no plants on Mars. No Martian lettuce. No Martian carrots. No nothing. We have photographed most of the planet. There's nothing there. At most, there is a remote possibility there might be some bacteria we have not yet discovered.

But basically, it's a dead planet, and yes, we know this for a fact.

So who cares if microbes from the Earth "contaminate" Mars? There is no ecosystem to contaminate. It's a dead planet.

very PC of them.:rolleyes:

Which reminds me: there was this big noise going on in Au, several years ago, about the level of bullying in state-owned institutions (which, of course, happens all over the world, nothing specific to Au).

So in order the shut their mouths, they created this "Anti-Bullying Institute". Very PC of them.
Only one small problem: several employees from the "Anti-Bullying Institute" started blowing the whistle, several months down the line, about the fact that they were bullied, too, within their own institution. Kinda ironic…

BTW- I wonder if Exon Mobile is sponsoring that thing on Mars….
 
Clearly it is in control.

;) ;)

Just not firmly enough yet to suit some.

They're not Socialists though, they just desire a little more government now.

Mars should have been kept clean, pristine, virgin and off limits to physical contact. Now it's polluted...

Watch for an alarming rise in its temperature and the rise of the canal levels.

:D
 
This is a valid concern you understand right for a LOT of reasons. First we're looking for alien life. Can you imagine this.

NASA: We found life on Mars.
World: WHOA ALIENS!
ten years later
NASA: It turns out Niel Armstrong had the stomach flu when he touched this thing. It's just common e.coli.

And that's just the basic one. You could potentially get mutant strains of absolutely anything, granted that will happen sooner or later anyhow but that doesn't mean you dont' pay attention.

So no this is not wackadoodle. This is science and you don't science bra so stop talking to those who do.
 
why??????????


EPA Spends Millions On Military-Style Weapons…

EPA

Fighting toxic spills is serious business.

Via Washington Times:

The Environmental Protection Agency has spent millions of dollars over the last decade on military-style weapons to arm its 200 “special agents” to fight environmental crime.

Among the weapons purchased are guns, body armor, camouflage equipment, unmanned aircraft, amphibious assault ships, radar and night-vision gear and other military-style weaponry and surveillance activities, according to a new report by the watchdog group Open the Books.

“Protecting the environment just got real. With millions of dollars spent on military style weaponry, the EPA is now literally ensconced with all institutional force,” said Adam Andrzejewski, founder of Open the Books and the author of the report.




meanwhile the THING that runs the Eee Pee Yay, is what?

A man

A woman

Other?

Wait for the Liberal wail of liar liar liar!

You haven't lied yet, at least not in this thread, but when you do again, and eventually you will, I'll point it out. I don't speak for the Liberals, though. They may start presumptive cries of "liar" based on past history alone.

I just found out exactly how wacky they can be in the TPP thread.

;)

Mention GMOs. I dare you! I double-dawg dare you! DOUBLE-DAWG!!!
 
Hey, jackass...

:eek:

We went over this before. Before you wet yourself with glee, ask me if I worked. Ask me if I've seen the game.

That's strike two.
 
Petey is a special from of wackadoodle.

Trust me, if the records were reversed, you wouldn't be hearing a holy peep out of him.
