NASA's budget is decreasing every year and china, India, ESA, Russia and japan are making strides in the exploration of space,
so there is a chance that the first flag planted on mars might not be the stars and stripes of the USA. who do you think will be the first nation/organization to land a man/woman on a different planet?
and will they even plant a flag or is that waist of space and weight to carry all the way to mars?
anyway i would like the hear what everybody thinks.
