Why doesn't everyone just forget about Mars. It's dirty, barren, and obviously cold, No trees, water, or sand people, all I see are odd formations with a possible what if.

Mars is PLAN B for Earth.
It will take billions of years, but; our Sun is evolving into a Red Giant. I assume at some point along the line Earth will dry up, and Mars will have the conditions Earth once had. We will need to continue to move further away to Each planet.
Well, it may take billions of years, but I wonder what teraforming Jupiter will be like - It would not have any over population problems ehh?

it would help if we knew what the scale or size of the objects were. I didn't see anything in the original article or this thread that gave a scale.
Where are those mars rovers????

Well, after all this. The only way to truly be sure is to wait until the 2030-2035 manned mission to Mars.
Until then, for all we know they could be dead trees, fossilized trees, agatized trees or bushes from a nuclear war on Mars millions of years ago, fantastic oil fields, traces of great oil etc...all we can do is speculate. Its very interesting, but even when the manned mission to Mars verifies these things; again all we can do is speculate - because its TPTB.
Well...I dont think all of us will have our own personal space crafts in this life time. I think, maybe, we should just leave it at that. Unless...one of you actually have billions of dollars and could launch your own shuttle
