PASADENA, Calif. -- The landing of Spirit on Mars has rekindled speculation that U.S. President George Bush is on the verge of putting NASA on a new space policy trajectory, one that could lead to a human expedition to the red planet.

By far the most persistent conjecture is that the Bush Administration has green-lighted a human return to the Moon as a stepping stone to planting footprints on the distant dunes of Mars

hmmm...very interesting

I heard on the radio this morning from Jay Heard of the Huntsville Space and Rocket Center that the State of the Union address could very well include a Mars Mission.
