I think I started believing we are not alone when I was 6th grade. Growing up in rural Kenya allowed me many opportunities to watch the sky at night. There were times when I see the milky way. Shooting stars and there was a star that we suspected was one of planets. One day me and my. Childhood friend are outside watching cows graze under the full moon. We started talking about Michael Jackson talent and music. My buddy came with the hypothesis that mj lived in d8fferent dimension and composed music from lyrics he could only he could hear..then we started talking about the poss8bility of life outside earth and we agreed there must be life elsewhere

I hope to live to see discovery of life elsewhere

Sci-fi shit in real life

Fascinating. Talented people can tap into the universe.

Travelling 40 million miles and slowing the vehicle down to land safely is just amazing shit. Nasa is one of greatest american institutions ..good to see many women in the control room..watching the countdown was just thrilling ...withing 8 minutes the little bigger sent us back light

It's pretty impressive.  Unfortunately NASA continues to face budget cuts.  So they are operating on a shoe-string budget while competitors like the military have money thrown at them.  BTW cows actually sleep at night  .

...space travel is considered heresy. I say with Trump, in terms of knowledge it's depreciated back to the dark ages. Such advances were feasible under Obama but not now. After such damage, repute for knowledge advances outside of commercial interests will likely swell back in a decade or so. If it does come back, it should be a natural ebb, revolutionary of all sorts, a remedy for fakeness and a stop to monetary hegemons, a generation ushering in a better way. I don't know if this will happen though.

They are cute. We used to take care of about 10 calves. Feeding them milk was a work ..they would just gulp it and you have to pace them so that they do not choke. Plus you cannot let them free range as they would run until the broke something

oh god that's precious.

i don't know about mars but i wish i had a little farm... with little chooks, geese, sheep, cows... alot of work i can see from playing hayday. do you still take care of baby cows?

What if we landed in Turkana from Mars? Looking at the efforts which would make Mars habitable makes me conclude we run away from that damned place.

It is comforting that Mwafrika is building big houses he won't use from the Mobutus, Gaddafis, Kenyattas, Kibakis, Odingas, Rutos to the gouts of this place.

Veri
Not anymore but my dad is still at it as a hobby. He breeds dairy cattle. So any time I am home I get to play with the calves. We had this cow we called her charity. She used to have zuch a big udder that we would put a bag in it so that it didn't get bruised as she grazed. When she would be pregnant we would have to modify entrances to fit her. I got a goat kid from my aunt one December ..i brought it home and it ran into the cows shed. The cows were so fascinated by this little thing and can around to pet it .

KP, this is truly precious. You're extremely lucky to have that experience. Thank-you for sharing. I hope Charity is well. Kudos to your dad, he sounds wise, a green thumb for sure.
