When's NASA going to launch a mission to the Ice Planet?

Well considering that by 2001 we couldn't pull off a cool centrifugal space
station, a moon base or a manned flight to Jupiter, (even a decent
re-release of said movie!!) I think the chances are slim that NASA is going
to launch an expedition to the Ice Planet.  ;-)  I'm convinced
(unfortunatly) that we won't really get into space until Mcdonald's finds
out it can mine hamburgers on asteroids.

I actually just had a dream last night about the sad state of the space
program and the prospect of a (very distant) future age of exploration.
Weird huh.  'Course I also had an incredibly detailed dream about going to a
nursery and getting a houseplant, pot and some soil.

Oh yeah, I still want a 70mm 2001!!  Bah.

(...) Come to New York and see 2001 in Times Square. Unless it ended its run last night, a restored edition was playing in one theatre. I think it's across the street from McDonald's. They're watching and waiting. (23 years ago, 1-Jan-02, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
