I think that is cool. Free flowing water on Mars? If that is the case what are the chances of microscopic life in that water? How will that affect the calculations for what planets can have some form of free flowing water in the galaxy? Then by extension life?

Very cool. I'll bet the producers of Matt Damon's new movie are feeling like they just hit the jackpot. If this announcement is what we think it is, we can expect to hear plans for a one=way manned trip to Mars in the very near future. That sort of undertaking would redefine our times, and create alliances between many nations around the world. Thanks for the heads up! I'll be tuning in to the presser.
 
This announcement after the supermoon/blood moon? My kid said, "It looks like Mars."

Nooooo way this is a coincidence. And the United Nations meets today? I guaranDAMNtee you when the pope meets with the UN today reveals he's an alien.

Looks like the conspiracy theorists had their tin foil hats finely-tuned after all.

Maybe we will see a renewed space race. But I want to know that exact details. I find stuff like this extremely interesting. I agree that this just put a renewed effort on getting people to Mars.

I can't help but be reminded of this...

The Church is prepared for this stuff, which I found to be odd. Always kinda felt like this story was almost an admission(or, possibly, early stages of damage control)..
 
Shouldn't this press conference be going on right now? I can't pull it up on the NASA website (receiving errors) and I can't find it on television. Pretty strange that they would hype an announcement like this and that none of the media would care. Also strange that they are not prepared to handle the traffic on their own website. Hopefully there's a different team in charge of the Mars mission than the publicity.
 
Awesome news, and I guess it does improve the chances for finding microbial life on Mars. But since we only have a sample of 1 (Earth), it is impossible to know the odds of finding it anywhere else. If I was a betting man, I would bet we won't find any in the solar system.

Even if there is no microbial life, this vastly increases the possibilities for a manned mission to Mars.
