My name is etched onto a chip on the Curiosity Rover and may well have been on various missions. I'm appalled you paid for this. It's always free, with the "for all mankind" ethos on which all space agencies are based. Congratulations on your Curiosity and to me on my Perseverance. We can have a two a side up there, Carl. Runner up but still promoted to the nearest planet. I am also on the Bloodhound Speed record car if it ever makes it to the record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Whilst I admire @Davids optimism, booking a Wembley hotel is such a waste! The greatest city in the World, with all manner of attractions, and you ignore it all to stay in a stabby part of the outskirts, to save a few minutes tube or train ride?

Pity that we cannot get him to buy the Rams. We could be one of the founder members of the Martian Premier League. I really do think that Wayne will get us automatic promotion.

Very pleased to hear it. I just checked and I'm also on the Insight Lander (and the Kepler Space telescope) but I think I missed Perseverance. I often think that Humanity will have arrived as a multiplanetary species when the "World Cup" becomes the "Worlds Cup" and teams from Earth travel to Mars when the red planet hosts it for the first time. If we think playing at altitude gives Ecuador and Bolivia an advantage in qualifying matches, imagine how much of an advantage it would be to play in one-third gravity if you're used to it and your opponents aren't?

London-centric behaviour at its worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stadium should have been built somewhere like Coventry to be decently accessible for the whole country not just people who live around London - Wembley is such a dreadful place to get to and away from.

Surely Birmingham? Direct train links to all corners of the country, with numerous stations to handle the capacity. Good motorway links to each corner. Large airport on the doorstep.

Great choices Carl. I watch everything that I can on space exploration but it is quantum physics that really blows my mind. I always enjoy your posts.
