Yay . . . .


colonization without blood baths and atrocities.

The rover may have stumbled across a very salty patch, an old Martian Dead Sea, perhaps. If the salt is widespread, it'll make colonisation more difficult.

I suppose an early stage of terraforming could work on getting rainfall to wash the salt into small seas, where it could be collected and disposed of in some way.

Not to worry Zkrib, skull sucking locust aliens come from 'the void'.

Won't that lead to the decadent fall of mankind? Serena Butler will save the day.

Makes you wonder about the 'liquid water = life' attitude that's often aired, though. For all we know, there are billions of sterile seas out there in the galaxy. the attitude I've seen has always been absence of liquid water = no life.

I've never seen the liquid water = life attitude.

I get that impression from stuff like this. Though they don't say it explicitly, just heavy hints.
