Would You Like A One-Way Ticket To Mars?

The question is, “Would you like a one-way ticket to Mars?”

I understand that scientists plan to send humans to Mars. 

The fact that it’s a one-way ticket excites but also scares me. To be one of the first human settlers on Mars would be a truly amazing experience that you’d never forget.

But remember, you can’t come back!

In my younger year’s I would’ve jumped at the chance to go into space and be one of the first settlers on Mars.

However, the reality is that once the astronauts (settlers) arrive on Mars, they’ll have to live, work and survive together under whatever circumstances they find themselves in, forever and ever (so, you’ve got no chance of changing your job title).

Will it be easy for them to adapt to a totally different planet?

No one knows…

They’d also have to be psychologically ready for any challenges that they may find; in particular, if another species already habitat Mars!

But, if another species habitat Mars, will they accept the human invaders or will it be a hostile first encounter?

Let’s hope whatever the outcome, it’s a positive one.

But hey, I’m no astronaut.

What do you think?

Did We Kill The Dinosaurs?

The question is, “Did we kill the dinosaurs?” We’ve all seen pictures, or watched documentaries relating to the subject of dinosaurs and bones; we’ve also been told that these were wiped out by a meteorite. But I have a theory. Is it possible that we were riding on the meteorite in the form of an organism that actually wiped them out? It could explain how we as a different species got on the planet in the first place, but it’s only a theory. But if I’m right, isn’t it possible that all the insects, birds and other wildlife came to this planet in the same way, and that’s the reason why there are so many different species on Earth, with more being discovered each year? But hey I’m no expert. What do you think? Author: Charmain Ingleton www.thewalkways.co.uk

Is The Giant Hogweed An Alien Life Form?

The question, “Is the giant Hogweed an alien life form?” I read an article that claimed that heatwaves in the United Kingdom caused the most toxic plant the “Giant Hogweed,” to spread. The plant, it’s botanical name “Heracleum Mantegazzianum,” was imported from Central Asia in 1893. Now, I don’t believe that the importers knew how dangerous this plant was. However, we’ve since learnt that it has a wicked defence mechanism. The sap contains toxic chemicals and can burn people and animals if its touched. I understand that most plants have some type of defence mechanism that’s used if they feel threatened, but this seems a bit extreme for a plant don’t you think? So, with that in mind, could it be an alien life form? We all assume that aliens walk on two legs, but could some have roots instead? But hey, I’m no Botanist, it’s just a theory.

What Are These Mysterious Balls Of Light?

The question is, “What are these mysterious balls of light?” Noticed by their illumination and seen during both night and day. Mysterious balls of light are seen regularly flying in different parts of the world. They move swiftly and silently through the skies without difficulty. So, what are they? Drones possibly. But who do they belong too? With balls of light appearing, manoeuvring and disappearing at speed I find it hard to believe that they’re programmed, or operated by any person remotely. With that said, isn’t it possible that these little machines are manned by a life form or even operated telepathically from another planet? But hey, I’m no scientist.
