...you know the rest. Few quotes are less memorable. So I have a question for my fellow Guru's. If you were the first person to step onto Mars, what would you say?
WiFi? Dunno, doesn't really sound like a very appealing thing to do, even being down in the history books for eternity as being the first man on Mars, I'd still prefer to stay here where we have stuff and people End of the day, it's just a rock with nothing on it
I would say..."What are all these large cylinders seemily aimed at the earth doing, and what's with all the green mist"................
Why the hell is it important what you say, they're just words, and words carry energy as anything does, but why not 'feel' it, once you step foot on Mars, why do you have to say anything deliberately.
...because seven thousand million people would be listening? and you would have a further near infinite amount of hits on YouTube, YouTube Galactic, FaceBook, SpaceBook etc until the rest of time. Then there are radio transmissions to consider, emanating outwards to end of the universe at the speed of light, which means that as the speed of light of existing energy from the big bang is ahead of you at the same speed, your words would still be travelling until the end of the known universe. Perhaps even farther, if one considers the multiple big bang theory, and other postulates of multi-dimensions. Just something to think about the next time this comes up in conversation, because it will, because we shall go there one day. Ultimately, the only things of value are the things which cannot be measured by money. The first spoken words of a human being from Earth when they step onto Mars, is one such example. An alien stepping onto Earth and speaking the first words to the Human race, would be another.
Assuming of course that it is actually accomplished and not shot on some Hollywood back lot... couldn't resist
One of two things. Where all the three titted women at? Well this was a waste of $100 billion I coulda gone to DisneyLand for a grand.
Yes it would be important, but as of now there'd be no way to get the person back and who knows how long it would take to develop the technology to do that. A suicide mission with relatively little gains is not something that I'm excited about. I think we'd learn more by sending more robots up there instead of sacrificing somebody just to say we did it.
