Rumbling MARS?

Something Different!

Two recordings of so called Mars quakes have been released by NASA from their static probe, but both give the impression of trains running deep under the surface of what appears to be a dead dry cold world!

But it is reported that some scientists are now in discussion to find a way to explain the possibility that life has been found on another world in our Solar system and this may not be revealed for at least two years?

Meanwhile China claims that it has been successful in growing a root vegetable on the Moon designed to deal with the conditions of 1/6th gravity and if this proves true the possibilities for Mars is very high!

What humanity is after with both the Moon and Mars and further afield is minerals that are rare if not totally new to the Earth, so that we can replace plastic which remains an essential part of all robotic craft and spaceships?

Farm Machinery. One.

Not getting any Smaller.

The concept in farm machinery is to cut out the need for farm labour, apart from a few cases of specialist vegetable crops that have to be picked by hand? But even here the days of needing a human picker are fading too, to be replaced by the gentle hand robotics?

The other reason is the size of fields today are far much bigger than they were seventy years ago, this is because of the removing of the traditional ditches. Machines today can do eighteen drill ploughing over that of the conventional four on most small tractors.

Most of the new farming machines have nearly everything in their cabs, but not yet a bed? Computerised and heated they can work both day and night to sow and to reap, depending on the time of the year. Costs are astronomical for these new beats going into the millions in some cases, one has to wonder that there must be still money in farming?
