  12. “Going to the stars will not make us wise. We have to become wise if we want to go to the stars.”

    I endorse this to 💯!

    I have this issue with many Sci-Fi or Space-bros. Last year we bought the boardgame "Terraforming Mars" (FryxGames). While it is indeed fun to use different technologies and resources for the colonization of the red planet and the mechanics are nice, the sociopolitical vision behind is so shallow/continouist, it dampens my joy a little bit.
    Now I want to send these guys a copy of your book, @ZachWeinersmith :QueerCat:

  13. NASA Is Locating Ice On Mars With This New Map

    “The map could help the agency decide where the first astronauts to the Red Planet should land. The more available water, the less missions will need to bring.
    Buried ice will be a vital resource for the first people to set foot on Mars, serving as drinking water and a key ingredient for rocket fuel. But it would also be a major scientific target: Astronauts or robots could one day drill ice cores much as scientists do on Earth, uncovering the climate history of Mars and exploring potential habitats (past or present) for microbial life.…”

    “The map reveals stunning geological features on Mars in three dimensions…
    A new map of Mars shows the Red Planet in stunning detail, revealing a wealth of fascinating geological features as seen from orbit.
    The high-resolution map could help scientists answer a number of pressing questions about Mars including how it came to be a dry, arid, and barren landscape despite once being abundant with liquid water.
    The Martian map was created by a team of scientists led by New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Center for Space Science…
    The map shows the Red Planet through the eyes of Hope's state-of-the-art onboard imaging system …”
