Water is, to the best of our knowledge, the key building block of life. If we can find it on Mars, it would help us glue together the geologic history of Mars and help us find out if there ever was life on Mars.

We think this is a very likely place for water.

Wherever we can find water we can produce oxygen, fuel and drinking water.

They are just acquiring knowledge about swimming and getting a feel for the water. Their attitudes are awesome and they are just absorbing everything.

I'm excited about this project because it ties in all the pieces of knowledge about water into one package. It's not that we don't know anything about water-we just have a lot of bits and pieces of information on it. We have no observations to tell us what's right or wrong, but hopefully this project will change that and have an impact globally.

We haven't gotten to that period where we can stop the pumps from going on, and the water from coming through the force main and do the repair. I know we need to do a more thorough inspection and maintenance program also, not just replace pipe.
