"NASA prepared an unmanned spacecraft for launch to Mars on Wednesday on a quest to learn whether Earth's neighboring planet had water long enough to nurture life."

"The 2-ton orbiter is scheduled for launch on Wednesday from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station between 7:54 a.m. and 9:39 a.m. EDT."

"The 21-foot (6.5-meter) spacecraft will ride aloft on a Lockheed Martin Atlas V rocket and is scheduled to reach Mars in March 2006."

Water or no, even if there was perfect atmosphere there, where will people find the energy to live??? We got some oil on this planet that lets us live. Mars=desert. Don't start shit about solar energy now.
