Mars Or Bust

I'm joining Elon Musk
    It's Mars or bust
  If we don't make it
    we become space dust 

  But no way that's in the cards
    We'll get there, we try hard
  As for the trip back ~
    Er, perhaps you've a tip?

Elvis had it sussed… simply write `Return To Sender’ on the rocket. On a serious note… the human race has begun doing what it can, because it can, with no consideration or preparation for… hmmm… the negatives! Fun but thought provoking write, GW. Terry

Bill, not only are you invited along... you can take over the pilot's job. I hear Texans are natural pilots. ~ Chuck Yeager

With the state of the world right now I don't think there will be a shortage of volunteers. Tom
