Finally. NASA has done something right. But for some reason when I heard that the orbiter Phoenix landed on Mars, I got chills down my spine. Technology is a wondrous thing but as an African-American woman, I can vividly see two scenarios...
1) We fuck up the Earth so bad that we will need to "relocate". Those with money will get to bounce to Mars and we will be left here to die.
or 2) As a method of population control in an attempt to save the Earth the "undesirables" will get a one-way ticket out of this world with the promise of land and riches untold. And you know how this movie ends.
However, when I am not thinking my conspiracy theorists thoughts, I think it is kinda cool that we are able to land an orbiter on Mars. if we can do that, then surely we can solve some more pressing issues on this planet!
