When I'm a grown-up I'm going to try to purchase my own personal flight into space. I'm kind of scraed of heights so I'll have to conquer that first. Before I posted this, I was talking to Vampyr on MSN and he was telling how he did something which had three effective end results. And I thought that was inspirational, so I searched for an inspirational news story to share in honor of him.

I would do this in a second, space is the only thing i am really interested in.

Yugi Starwind · 06-22-2004, 12:44 PM

dude..that's awesome. i definitely wanna try that when i get older.

Going to outer space would be crazy. Unimaginable.

I saw that on the news last night but I didn't catch the whole story so I didn't completely understand.

Anyways, that is awesome! I have always wanted to be able to travel into space. I even thought about becoming an astronaut until I found out that there is no possible way. My little bro wants to be one, so that is cool. Someday, I hope that trips to space would become like... a cruise around South America.

I can't agree with you more. that would be a phenomenominal experience if we could do that. hey, maybe one day we'll be living on the moon if earth ever gets too popuilated, or on mars, since there was some life there..and water as well..

Im pretty sure they havent 100% confirmed the life on mars thing yet.

And ther is no water on mars. There are frozen polar ice caps.

not exactly the first thing on my "to do when i get grown up" list...but thats real cool...definately insprirational

well, meant the ice caps, in terms of water. as for life on mars, i heard that some kind of fossilized plant or something was found there..

I dont think so. Now im not space buff. j/k. i love space.

Im prettys sure they didnt find anything to my recolection, now im not saying just because i havent heard it its not true by any means, but i mean, i watch alot of discovery channel for the pre-historic earth shows, and for the space shows, and i havent heard or seen anything about that.

Please, honestly, for the love of god, prove me wrong.

If a fossil was discovered, it would've received tons of attention, everyone would know about it. So, I'm going to assume that nothing was discovered and you're just making an error.

Yugi Starwind · 06-23-2004, 10:19 AM

I heard something about plant life on Mars. it could just be a mistake on my part, though

DimHalo · 06-23-2004, 11:19 AM

I heard about plant life too... a couuple years ago. Actually, I think it was a trace of some bacteria or something.
