rationalizations, again

E.P. — 9/12/2006 2:23:03 PM (archived)

a rover is a tool for scientists on Earth. teleprescence, as it were.

How many scientists can use one rover at the same time?

How long can a rover operate on Mars, and how much does it cost to send it there?

How long can a person operate on Mars, and how much does it cost to send a person there?

Rationalizations don't work against impactors. There's 64 fragments of SW3 heading our way in 2022, along with SW3's dust stream. Dealing with that is Griffin's responsibility, not mine.

YOU want to send men to Mars, YOU figure our a way of protecting them from radiation - and YOU convince them and their families that YOU have ensured their safety.

YOU want to send men to Mars, YOU figure out a way to do it cheaply.
