One World - Multiple Space Colonies

There's a trend in the world of science and space exploration towards colonizing other planets. We all know the motivation behind this. Uh huh.

Mankind is screwing up planet earth; so people are looking and hoping to build a new community in another part of the universe.

To quote Homer Simpson: “Doh!”

As if … we humans won't do the exact same thing if we set up shop elsewhere!

Oh, it will start off all good, just like planet earth did. But there will be one thing wrong with the new world on Mars, Venus, Jupiter, wherever.

There will still be humans living there.

Humans with the same mindset in the new space colony that they had when they lived on planet earth.

Give it some time. Before you know it, someone will pop the question.

Uuummm … how come we don't have a red button?

MARS Social - Network for Artists and Authors

So then after Facebook was invented, other folks decided that there was no law against there being more than one network. Especially when the networks truly connect like-minded people. Voila! MARS Social, a network for authors and artists. Being neither an artist nor an author myself, but having authors and artists as friends (some of whom read my blogs), thought it only right to mention this community because it has fascinating content - news, visual arts, human interest, groups, a Red Pages directory of its members and more!  That's MARS for Media Arts Review Social.  Create a FREE account.

OR ... You could join that other MARS network.  They aim to have the first human colony on the Red Planet by the year 2025.  But it's not free to become one of "them".  :)
