I once drove 1000 miles, and parked within 5mm of the kerb.

Excuse me for being thick but what purpose has been served by going to Mars? A lot of talented people have worked on this project, I would have thought they could have found something here on earth to do before they bugger another planet up. Just my thoughts Keith.

...before they bugger another planet up.
I know theres a lot of money wasted on this earth that could be used to a better purpose. But no one has answered my question, what are we going to gain out of going to another planet. We can 't live there and we can't bring anything back in big enough quantity to benifit mankind. How things are going we won't be living on this one for much longer. Keith.
but Adev going at night you won't be able to se where you are going and may miss it altogether. Nice job NASAPete
