SpaceX Aims To Put Man On Mars In 10-20 Years

Posted by samzenpus on from the mars-needs-astronauts dept.

An anonymous reader writes "SpaceX hopes to put an astronaut on Mars within 10 to 20 years. From the article: '"We'll probably put a first man in space in about three years," Elon Musk told the Wall Street Journal Saturday. "We're going all the way to Mars, I think... best case 10 years, worst case 15 to 20 years."'"

    I hate to be a grammar nazi, but you just modified a noun referring to Barack Obama with an adjective with unambiguously positive connotations. You should write instead, "So, did Obama manage to pull the wool over our eyes?" or possibly, "So, was Obama less wrong than he usually is?"
