Comment on This New Ocean by Thomas-Peters

I love (still) these concepts of the 80's. In those days, I started to suspect that Man will never reach Mars in my lifespan, as those projects are not taken with budgetary interest. Now, I'm sure that Man will never reach Mars, but maybe Man (as we know now) will not last much more time. Another creature will replace us soon or later, and will see Mars with scientific eyes and not with rentability eyes.
