Top 10 Reasons Why a Hillary Clinton Presidency Isn't Guaranteed

Some of these "reasons" (Benghazi/the e-mails/she's a woman/the Republican nominee) are pure bullshit, others are plausible, and #5 is spot-on!



I normally wouldn't upload a WatchMojo video, as they usually deal with the entertainment industry, but this one's less than a week old, so what the hey?

Man On Mars? NASA Says It's Happening -- And Soon

We're going to Mars -- and we're going in the not-too-distant future.

NASA says preparations for a manned mission to the Red Planet are proceeding as planned, with humans expected to first foot on Mars in the 2030s.

"We are farther down the path to sending humans to Mars than at any point in NASA's history," NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said at an event last week, according to Space.com. "We have a lot of work to do to get humans to Mars, but we'll get there."

That work includes completing the development of the rockets and spacecraft that will get humans there and back again, including the Space Launch System and Orion spacecraft, which are still being tested.

I'm a sucker for stories like this, but they need to replace the word humans with Americans. as I strongly suspect the Chinese will already be there.
