Beijing Cracks Down on Noisy Dancing Grandmas

Every day hordes of Beijingers, mostly retired women, flood the city’s parks and squares to do one thing: dance. Actually, that’s a lie. They do two things: dance and listen to really, really loud music. And it’s this music that has caused such a major public outcry against Beijing’s “dancing grandmas.”

Beijing is now making more of an effort to crack down on people who gather in public spaces to dance to blaring music. According to the capital’s new public fitness regulations, outdoor exercising should not disturb Beijing's residents or businesses.

Opportunity, the Mars rover launched in 2003 and operational in 2004 is still working.
She is probably solar only by now. Guaranteed for 90 Sols (Martian Day) and has been 13 years. Twin Spirit got stuck and eventually perished but even then had lasted far beyond 90 Sols.

Science Rover Curiosity has trouble with Martian surface and wheels.
 
Terra forming MARS OR VENUS!!! :D


But no magnetosphere (Mars) means no protection from radiation :( .... there's a lot of problems to overcome that is most probably the single biggest and most difficult one... but hopefully we can be crazy enuff to do it! :D

*enough xD :D:D:D

The lack of a magnetosphere is one of the biggest problems by far to overcome also 1/3 rd gravity is a serious bitch as we are not yet 100% sure of the serious effects of lower gravity will do to humanity over life times... we know there are definitely bad effects

BUT hopefully some day there could be some super dooper awesome work around :)

Venus has the other problem where it has an EXTREMELY thick atmosphere - for example the "Venera" exploration probes that only lasted from 23 minutes to 2 hours.... scaaaaary conditions on Venus extreme heat of like I think 465 degrees Celsius - INSANE! hehehehehee! xD :D

trollololol :D

hopefully we can start terraform pretty soon or hopefully within my life time :)
