COLONISING MARS !

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

HUMAN COLONY ON MARS ~ NOTE THE BIOMES IN WHICH

FOOD IS CULTIVATED.  WE HAVE TO WEAR SPACE SUITS

WHEN WE ARE OUTSIDE OUR AIR-CONDITIONED HOUSES ! 

 

WHY  did we travel to inhabit MARS ?

Desire to escape Earth's Gravity

Desire to live among the Stars

Desire to escape from Earth's Depravity

 

Flattered to be among the chosen few

To BOLDLY GO where no ones been before

Chosen by BUZZ ALDRIN who wanted to come too

But he was much too old at over eighty four !

 

The are 20 of us ~ all in pairs

The Jpurney took a Year and no one died !

Some days ~ we could not hold back the tears 

A ONE-WAY TICKET ~ But we all Survived !

 

ROBOTS had gone ahead and built our CITY

Water pure ~ and OXYGEN to breath

As we approached it really did look PRETTY

And we knew it was to late to leave !

 

First Male & Female ~ Martian Pioneers

To make our Lives & Homes in Outer Space

We all hoped that we would live for Years & Years

And be the Parents of the MARTIAN RACE ~ AMEN !

 

Thanks for visiting MARS ~ Comments welcome ~ LOVE B & A    

 

BUZZ ALDRIN leads a Group who are looking at the logistics

of establishing a HUMAN COLONY ON MARS !  They think it is

feasible for the infrastructure to be built by ROBOTS (solar

powered ~ who won't need Oxygen ~ Water  or Food) ready

for the first Humans to move in !  Criteria for selection was:

Couples ~ Scientists or Medics under 40 and with no childrten.

ANGELA & I ticked all the boxes !  Also were MAD enough to

GO and BRAVE enough to stay !  AMEN BRIAN & ANGELA XOX

        Whoa thats crazy! Great poem. I know they have a list of people prepared to go live there but I thought it was years off. Sister Christina

          Yep, just hop on the Number 7 bus as Brian has confirmed for me! Much more of this and a van will turn up, not a bus - two men in white coats? heehee.

            THANKS CHRIS ~ Pleased you liked the POEM ~ I wrote the Poem as if we had already gone ! It was either MARS (Free) or EVEREST ($5000) where 1 in 10 die ! So I thought I would rather live on MARS (with ANGELA) than die alone on EVEREST (I am a Mountaineer) ! All MEN as you know have a DEATH WISH ~ BUT don't reach for the BRANDY ~ I'm not planning to do either ~ this week. Weather is mild here 50 ~ 60 F and NO SNOW ~ Going to a Lecture tonight @ local Hospital ~ With Angela on "Nurses in the Crimean War" more later ~ Your from Mars ~ Brother Brian & Sister Angela XOX

            Thanks Brian. I notice in some James Bond films. They are going to start a 'new world' or New something. But they forget that it is the very same people in the 'bad old world' that they hope to be successful in their 'New world'! Don't make sense. eg. Why did they go to the moon in 'Moonraker' with outwardly physically perfect human beings in the spaceship? They were the same people inside, in their hearts/souls/spirits!

            We cannot get this world right so we are now going to ruin another one. It won't happen as we are being watched all the time and being laughed at by serious space travellers.
            Never forget that the the first words that Neil Armstrong said when he walked on the moon were "They are here!".
