Guests:	Open Lines

Richard C. Hoagland of Enterprise Mission(1), the guest for the first half of Friday's show, discussed the latest information about Mars. He touched on the controversy of NASA changing the color of images sent back from the planet (a listener sent in this "color corrected" image(2)), which he said was done as a distraction to keep people from the real issueâ€"that there are artifacts on the surface.
Commenting on some preliminary remote sensing results that found carbonates in the Martian soil, Hoagland said this was an indication of past water, and that the Spirit Rover had landed in a "dry lakebed." He expressed surprise that NASA was asking for students to send in rocks from around the world for comparison studies, leading him to surmise that they were finding unusual compositions on Mars that had no matches.
Hoagland also discussed Pres. Bush's upcoming space initiative(3) which he heard would include a plan that would combine robotics with a manned crew in trips to Mars and the Moon. He was impressed that the plan was getting away from the "false dichotomy" that robotic and manned missions should be separate endeavors.

True or False?

(2) I created the True or False(1) site as a tool for myself and for the people on your[Streamlink] message boards to help them remember all the predictions made by yourguests. I know Sean David Morton and Ed Dames both get a hard time fromthe critics (me included lol) so I wanted to document all that they sayto see if they really do come up with some positive results. I live in Manchester, England but I alsospend a lot of time in the US in New Jersey. I have been listening toCoast for over 6 years now and it just gets better and better. I have tolisten on Streamlink when I am over here in England because of the timedifference. -- Simon Aspinall 1. http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/aspie/trueorfalse/index.html 2. http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/aspie/trueorfalse/index.html
