If you were one of those who thought NASA would backtrack about their "Earth Shaking" find

Step forward and claim your prize.

I should have known better myself. Figured after all the mixed messages before they wouldn't try it again.

It's almost as if there are two groups within NASA: one that thinks the public should know certain things, and one who wants to keep a lid on it all. That just so happens to be what various people have claimed for years now.

On top of that, NASA answers to the DoD, which is kind of unusual. It could be the DoD that keeps stepping in whenever they want to release something. Maybe they think the public can't handle the truth and it would cause widespread panic, making it a matter of security, or they have other, more nefarious, reasons.

Naturally i'm going with the more nefarious angle. Big smile

I heard CCP is deliberateky forcing NASA to delay annoucing life has been found on Mars in order to coincide with the release of Retribution on December 4th Lol

""We're getting data from SAM … this data is gonna be one for the history books. It's looking really good."

Whatever history-making news there is to report, Curiosity scientists are expected to cough up the goods at this year's American Geophysical Union (AGU) meeting in San Francisco, to be held from Dec. 3 to Dec. 7.

The speculation of methane is just a typical result of people getting their information retrieval devices cross-wired. There was methane in the Mars Curiosity Rover that showed up on one of the initial SAM, but it was confirmed to be very likely the result of contamination from launch, and wasn't found after in any quantities. The original amount was minute and to be certain, they flushed the rovers internals, and retested with negative results and have't found it since.

So, basically someone read the article and went all ape because they were stoned or something and thought it said pie instead of pee.

..queue rumors that NASA found a pie on Mars which peed on the rover..

I can understand that. I've had similar results with various over the counter laxatives. Straight

It's still life. Even if it's a basic form.

A lot of people do think it's just trillions of dead rocks out there, and we're the one special exception where life managed to happen. If we found microbial life on two planets within our own system, all of a sudden you're looking at microbial life probably being common throughout the universe, and no more endless dead rocks.

As for what you said about the rover having a false reading, is it more likely the exact same error happened twice, or they're using the same trick to dismiss actual findings?

Conspiracy sites these days are awful. Probably still too busy arguing about Obama's birth certificate. Straight

I'm thinking that NASA's big Mars discovery was finding the sound stage used to fake the moon landing. Talk about the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing...
