The gentleman who narrates this video is an actual research scientist (in geology) who researches Mars stuff.

Mars Guy rocks. Speaking both colloquially and geologically. Love his "items for scale".

"Mars Guy for scale"

Great. Now they can finally make Mars the setting for an anime. Add a sea of two, and you have a whole anime season.

Earth is so much water. It has so much beauty. We should like that world.

If we liked water so much weโ€™d not have called our planet Earth.

I've never understood the whole "we shouldn't explore space because earth is great" thing. Everyone obviously agrees that Earth is amazing, most of all the people who talk about settling and terraforming mars. Who loves earth more than the people who want to make other planets more like earth?
