    The ship was a thing of beauty -- but, I imagine any ship we take to Mars (even if it's built for multiple Earth-Mars transits the way they said this one was) will be a lot less spacious and have a lot more bulk around the crew parts in order to shield from radiation.

    I hope to see something like it in my lifetime, but I have serious doubts that we'll ever have the political and financial will to go.

    So yeah. There is water on Mars, Pluto, possibly Charon, and probably Saturn's moons Enceladus and Europa. Can't analyze though. Can only look at it.

    Kind of a bummer.
    Europa is a moon of Jupiter.

    I would post a picture, but I don't think there are any that are RZ appropriate on the web.
