Is NASA Afraid to Send a Manned Mission to Mars?

Thanks, very encouraging. But are they prepared to tell the world what they find there? And will they?

NASA has not been forth coming and sharing their information with the world.

This has destroyed confidence in NASA, which is a Lockheed asset and makes it look very much like they are deliberately keeping information to a select elite few. This is not democracy.

The Martian planet was once inhabited and it does have an atmosphere.

Yes, what evidence have you got that they don't?

Evidence?

Evidence?

Got none? Thought not. Game over, thanks for playing. Bye now.

The evidence is people do not trust NASA. Even some fine scientists after looking at the poor quality of the Mars data have found many, many inconsistencies.

NASA is *supposed* to be operating in the public and scientific interest.

Why then do they not allow qualified private scientists to look at their real time data, instead of sequestering it and keeping it secret.

There's no law which says NASA must hide their data.

What's the problem

Not evidence, kook.

Scientists in charge of experiments are entitled to study the data first. It's not kept secret, you dolt.

Like I said, scientists who proposes the experiments get primacy. Not kooks like you.

BWAHAHAHHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAA!!!!

KOOK.

Nope, there's no need for NAsa to waste precious time, and taxpayers money because a few kooks are unable to think critically.

[...]

Wait a minute, who is in charge of NASA? Is NASA a government agency or a private one? If it's a private one then they can keep the data to

Nitwit. You don't understand do you? The scientists in charge of the experiment gets primacy. Peer review comes later.

If NASA had to give into every stupid kook in the US, h=-just because some fool cannot think clearly, they'd never get anything done. Listening to kooks is why some of your states think they should teach creation 'science'

Imagine letting *those* nitwits run other things. NASA's doing a great job, and arguing with kooks is a waste of valuable resources on their part. One reason they decided not to back Jim's answers to the Moon Hoaxers book.

Which other scientists? You mean hoaxland?

BWAHAHHAHHAAHHA

Nope, any conspiracy is all in your mind.

Yep, I turn on my TV, kook.

Nope, but wasting taxpayers money chasing after the shadows kooks like you throw up is not a good thing.

Whenever you fantasies are exposed as crap (as they always are), you chase after another fantasy. Better to let you remain willfully ignorant, I suppose.

NASA put mankind on the moon with 1960's computer technology

Ah, but peer review is the process by which scientific discovery is evaluated.

The ruins on Mars (or alledged lack of) need to be scientifically evaluated by peer review. How can that happen when NASA won't release the data for independent scientific peer review?

And why won't they?

Does it have something to do with the fact that Lockheed Martin controls NASA?

Who controls Lockheed Martin?

Carlyle does that's who.

I see massive conflict of interest here.

What is unscientific about scientific peer review, eh?

What iss kooky, stupid or whatever about scientists reviewing other scientists findings? Of course other scientists can't review NASA's findings without reviewing the data. Why won't NASA release the real time data so other scientists can complete the scientific peer review process?

If NASA was doing a great scientific job they would allow their data to be scrutinized by other scientists and let it go through the scientific peer review process.

Wait a minute. Do you suppose people are questioning the Apollo data because NASA will not allow scientists to review their Mars data?

Any scientist who would like to look at the data.

There would be a consensus of opinion, and that is the scientific peer review process.

NASA has concluded and told the world that there are no ruins on Mars.

That's fine, except NASA has not allowed the scientific peer review process to happen, and that's bad science.

That's the equivalent of buying Rael's clone claims without a DNA test.

The scientific peer review process is a conspiracy?

That's a new one on me.

The Martians are not going to pleased with this idea and you know that. I think you are just trolling The Conspiracy

I'm sure NASA would not be please in you're revealing that factoid.

Trolling Carlyle. And they sure are edgy.
