the only way to prove my personel claims would break the rules and be a stupid move on my part, either way though i dont have to prove anything to someone that just still cant get it.
You have no prof, I have no prof, therefore this argument it moot.
This is the third time ive said it in so many words.
I hope it gets through this time.
BTW I noticed how you used your thesaurus app to make it look like you are a well read individual in your last post, remember though, looks are not everything.
Dinosaurs would disagree with you, if they were still around to.

I think we should stop any colonization of Mars or any other planet and learn to keep this one first.

sure you uncle did and sure your a philosophy major.....
see how that works.
Its sad such smart individual as yourself been degraded to going back and forth(unnecessarily) with such low IQ individuals that believe in conspiracies.
such a wasted talent
Why? I think we should stop any colonization of Mars or any other planet and learn to keep this one first. We have here is a rare life supporting planet right where we are.
It's just with all these people celebrating about Elon Musk and his landing of booster blah blah blah.
Do you really think this guy cars about the environment at all? Selling an electric car for 80k a pop?
Stop celebrating useless stuff, like putting a man on mars, and how about we save the rhino's. Oh wait, they're already gone as of today.
Wake up people. Elon Musk is not a savior nor a pioneer. Just another douche with money.

Again, one of those problems that would have to be solved, and the resulting technologies could them be brought back to earth and adapted to applications here. What could we do with our nuclear technology with better radiation shielding or even containment for example?
Think of the money needed to pull this off as an investment in Earth's future. You are assuming that our technology would remain static. It wouldn't; it would have to improve and drastically. You are assuming that any such colonization and improvements for it would happen in a vacuum. Again, they wouldn't. Things useful to colonization would have practical applications back on Earth making life better for everyone back here.

It isn't worth the money when we have deserts right here.
Colonization of other planets is ridiculous for the reasons I detailed in my initial post in this thread.

what does breaking the sound barriers have to do with the colonization of mars? off topic or bad analogy.
