'We thought it was impossible:' Water frost on Mars discovered near Red Planet's equator
"Its existence here is exciting, and hints that there are exceptional processes at play that are allowing frost to form."

Quick, send 200 billionaires to Mars to confirm this.
Just give first dibs to Nestle. They will find a way to get there.
I doubt it. There are no indigenous people there that rely on that water so nestle wouldn't be motivated enough to get it.
Yeah, it's no fun without the cruelty
Careful! I’m told those individuals are responsible for nearly all productive work on the planet.
But don't bring them back.
Without their money
What would they do with their money on Mars?
Same thing they do here, hoard it
Use it to extract more money from the indentured servants they conned into going.
You think Jeff bezos is gonna be putting up the solar panels?
You think the air in mars habitats is gonna be free?
Don't send Elon, though. I'd rather we not contaminate the planet.
I'd rather contaminate Mars with him than Earth.
Let's just launch him into the Sun.
Sadly, it takes a shit ton of energy to get things to the sun. Everything is moving very quickly around the sun. You need the opposite amount of energy to fall in.
You only need enough energy to get it down to the orbit of Venus, plus a little bit extra for some gravity assists around Venus and Jupiter. Those will shoot it to the edge of the solar system where a tiny bit of thrust will kill the remaining angular momentum and let it fall back into the sun.
Oh, and it will take a century.Speaking as an aerospace engineer, of course. But it'd be a worthy um...expenditure?
We should send up some sea monkeys for hahas.
/s
We should send genetically modified cockroaches and algae. Then check back 500 years later. Surely there's no way it can go wrong
