No man, bitchin' resorts with golf courses and tennis courts and a swimming pool.

will the pool have one of those bars poolside that you can swim up to? I've never been to one of those, but they sound great.

The thing is you know all those drunks aren't leaving the pool to use the rest room.

NASA takes close-ups of Ceres’s strange white spots. Still can't explain them.

We freaking should have bases all over this solar system by now.. Very frustrating that I probably will not even see a moon base ...

Hang tight I think we see it yet..I think humanity is finally on the verge of a true space age coming about..the truth embargo is slowly coming to an end..years in the making and I think it all starts to pick up game changer speed starting around 2019/2020

Salt now the leading theory, how that would be oozing from the interior would remain a mystery

I sure hope so.. But I fear with our two party system who hate each other nothing will get done..

Dawn Heads Toward Final Orbit

After spending eight months at dwarf planet Ceres, the Dawn spacecraft is going to get a real close look at the surface. What the heck are those bright spots seen from afar? What sort of processes sculpt its airless surface? Scientists will get a better sense of this when the spacecraft moves from its previous orbit of 915 miles (1,470 kilometers) to just 235 miles (380 kilometers). Dawn began its maneuvers on Oct. 23 and will reach the lowest orbit of its mission by mid-December.

I hope it's a University of Michigan College of Engineering temporal displacement prototype that's been sitting there 100,000 plus years.

well, it wasn't but a bunch of salt is also cool, no?

Back in the voting thread, I guessed it was some king of glass.

tigermud posted a quote about it possibly being salt.

Just think of the minerals up there waiting to be used to advance mankind?

i got a bowl of some really bland mashed potatoes at home that could use the salt.

My understanding is they are now saying "likely" and not foregone 100% confirmed,

http://www.scienceworldreport.com/a...f-planet-ceres-bright-spots-salt-deposits.htm

likely though it would seem.

Ceres plays a big part in the new tv show The Expanse on the Syfy channel.. First two episodes sort of slow but not terrible. But 3 and 4 were real good and can be seen on demand right now.. One day long after we are going we will be expanding out into the solar system I think..
