      One of the biggest reasons living on Mars seems so impossible is the inexistence of water. With this new discovery, it could not just be possible, but probable, that solving the other issue of breathing could mean we could live on Mars.

      Currently Mars seems to be the most important aspect of space exploration. We are truly hoping that one day there can be humans on Mars. As of now however, a way to get a human back from Mars to Earth is not possible.

I found it interesting that academics and scholars were more prone to it, and that in the adult world there are many prime examples of procrastinations directly marring their gain (i.e., tax returns).
