This is barbaric. I hate this article. I know, Cher, it is necessary for us to learn about these things in order to oppose these practices. But the article makes me sick at heart.

Monkey don't want to go to space....and humans don't deserve a fresh new planet with the mess we've made of this one. Besides, we already know the affects of radiation on humans. It's called cancer.

If we did inhabit other planets in our current evolution, enlightened life forms on neighboring planets would say: Oh crap, there goes the neighborhood - w/ every right to boot us off pristine planets. No war, planet degradation, pollution, greed, etc.

"Atrocities are no less atrocities when they occur in laboratories and are called medical research." ~George Bernard Shaw, Irish Playwright and Critic

Mankind does not need astronauts traveling to Mars or any other planet. Exploration of other planets can be done with technology alone.
