My motto: Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow as it may not be required. This no longer applies in light of current events.

Is or was. Both are very significant

It really would be interesting to only discover such a thing as life, except for not any prove it either, for also the magnificent place of the surface of Mars,
where that of flat-lying rocks embedded in the sand, could be telling about possible pre-historic oceans, for at least that of liquid water.

except no such thing as any "Face on Mars" either.

Of course, we could be still only looking here, for next also that of being perhaps the most important.
