Europe has fixed on a concept for its next mission to land on the Red Planet. It aims to send a single robot rover to the Martian surface along with another, stationary, science package. |

Sig!
It's a real deception... Can we expect to make a real Mars exploration in these conditions? Whereas the European Union of the 25 is the first power of the world, just before the USA. But, European Space Agency is like a poor face to NASA. 2013... We can say never! We push, we push, we push and during this time, we can only dream by seeing the synthetics pictures of the rover (more build than the MER...). This make me angry from the Europe. All this technocrates wo don't have any interest of the space and the science and who can prefer to pay there attention to... to what? So, this fact reveal clearly the Europe status : no goal, no way. No target are fix for the future. We can't stay with this semi-mesure Europe. A lots of project will stay write on the paper, in this time, America have landed on Mars with men and women. I say it all the time : make the United States of Europe. Or stop it and come back to a pre-war situation when the countries made their own small project. Sorry about that, but, for me, it's too. -------------------- |

Calm down Ant103...Maybe this step back can represent a turning point... Who knows? And comparing ESA's budget with the NASA one isn't fair. You, and me, every european, contributes each year with the equivalent to a movie ticket. Maybe it is time to stop and redirect the funds to a more pragmatic way of doing things, not depending on foreign knowledge. There's one good novelty that cannot be forgotten in spite of this deception being taking our time and thoughts...ESA is asking for the SME's collaboration, and, in my humble opinion, that means advance. Let's wait and see what's ESA response... -------------------- "Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied, "If you seek for Eldorado!"
