Bush Expected to Announce Moon or Mars Mission

George W. Bush.

President George Bush is expected to make an announcement to convince the United States to land humans on the moon or Mars. The speech on December 17th, marking the 100th anniversary of the Wright Brothers' first flight, is rumored to be similar in some aspects to John F. Kennedy's famous speech in which he set a deadline for a manned mission to the moon. While Robert Zubrin and others have criticized any announcement that might pit the moon against Mars, Red Colony strongly feels that the habitation of any celestial object will be benefitial to mankind. Let's just pray it's Mars...

If Bush doesn't make the announcement on the 17th, he is expected to do so in his State of the Union address in January.
