..but the libs say it's the cows. Will the martins have to kill all martian cows to survive the next 12 years???

quote:

The mystery of methane on Mars may finally be solved as scientists Monday confirmed the presence of the life-indicating gas on the Red Planet as well as where it might have come from.

In the 15 years since a European probe reported traces of the gas in the Martian atmosphere, debate has raged over the accuracy of the readings showing methane, which on Earth is produced by simple lifeforms.

Because methane gas dissipates relatively quickly -- within around 12 years on Earth -- and due to the difficulty of observing Mars' atmosphere, many scientists questioned previous studies that relied on a single data set.

Now an international team of experts have compared observations from two separate spacecraft, taken just one day apart in 2013, to find independent proof of methane on our neighbouring planet.


Does this mean we can keep our cows on earth? If they found martian cows on Mars, they would blame this on the martian cows.

Space cows are responsible.

Space Cow farts are like 3 or 4 times more methaney than Earth cow farts.

I really expected to see some version of a bunch of farting AOC’s.

I saw Martians Cows open for Crotchless Pancakes at Oz Fest back in the late 90's. They were putting out some crunchy grooves back than.

Please let POTUS run with "Space Cows on Mars." Imagine the possibilities.

Methane on Mars is caused by Uranus

All the Earth farts have opened up a hole in the ozone layer, allowing subsequent farts to escape the atmosphere and radiant into space.

Earth farts are now landing in out adjacent planets which will further the runaway greenhouse effect on Venus and start it on Mars.

Correct me if my 5th grade science is a little off but doesn’t the earth produce methane by decaying plant matter in water?

Wouldn’t the volume of methane from decaying plant matter be a billion fold whatever cow fats would be?

Hasn’t this been happening since the dawn of time?

Do people even think before speaking anymore?
