    Why did you do it the captain asked. Jeff Spender quietly laid the pistol at his feet. Because Ive seen that what these Martians had was just as good as anything well ever hope to have. They stopped where we should have stopped a hundred years ago (64) In the Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury, Spender realized the truth before the rest of the crew.

    Final Draft For hundreds of years the Red Planet, Mars, has fascinated people. Today it appears as if we re on the brink of exploring, or rather learning to explore, this great mystery.

  • Mission To Mars
    1,047 words
    Summary: My God, it's full of cliches! (with apologies to the writers of 2010) A good cast, some impressive special effects, and an experienced astronaut providing technical advice. What could have gone wrong Let's start with the script. It combines every possible sci-fi cliche (look for these movies as they appear in M 2 M: 2001 and 2010 in a big way, Dune, The Abyss, Apollo 13, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, to name only a few) in a melodramatic, hokey script. Granted, there's a really go...

If oxygen, that means we can breathe. 8/11/89" In the following writing you will be informed as to why those statements were wrong. The basis of his statement was made on fuzzy photos showing what looked to be canals; the problem is, he does not m...

More work needs to be done to confirm this preliminary result, and many scientists remain unconvinced by the present evidence. But if this preliminary result is confirmed, if the structures inside the meteorite turn out to be fossil evidence for cellular organisms, the...
  • Cupid To Mars
    623 words
    The first artist I have chosen is Bartolomeo Manfredi (1582 – 1622). He was an Italian painter born in Mantua, and active mainly in Rome where he was one of the most important Caravaggio's followers. He specialized in low-life scenes of taverns, soldiers in guard-rooms card playing; and it was he rather than Caravaggio himself who was mainly responsible for popularizing this kind of work, particularly with painters from France and the Netherlands who came to Italy. (1) "Inspite of his cont...
