A dry moon...

Science announces that what seemed to be ice on the moon, is most likely a weird radar reflection from rough terrain... I know one or two things about radars due to my previous acquaintances :-) Believe me, it's a mess, not the clear-cut things that we are shown in movies... :-|

anyway, back in topic, I never particularly liked the idea of going back to the moon to build a permanent base. I'd rather have my (tax) money spent on serious studies on going to mars, which looks like a much more interesting place to visit. and for more than a political stunt and flag sticking...

Mars Direct, here we come!!!
