Subject: What Me Worry? Have A Mars Bar. Part 2. Oct. 19, 2007.
I see now that the star of The "Veronica Mars" TV show is
appearing on the "Heroes" TV show. Strange things are a happening.

He further assured me that it was quite obvious that a complete
understanding was not possible in one visitation; therefore as the
first contact was made, it would be comparatively easy to establish
other contacts, as was convenient and necessary. Since this first
contact and trip was made, I have returned on several occasions; in
fact, Nur El often stood beside me as I wrote, to further clear up,
or refresh my memory regarding any details which were not entirely
clear.
Now I will contact my Martian guide and take an astral flight
through space, and see just how it is that man lives on the red
planet. Almost immediately a very distinguished looking man stands
before me; he is Nur El, a man of high position and esteem from
one of the Martian cities. He is dressed in a very brilliant red
suit. The coat is long, almost to the knees, with loose fitting
pantaloons. On his head is a red hat with a square shaped brim that
is turned up on four sides.
Our trip there is a matter of split seconds as no craft is used or
needed.
Arriving on the surface of Mars, we are at once aware of the
extremely rugged terrain, rocky hills and sandy wastes, that
stretches out endlessly around us. There are many peculiar whirling
dust clouds all about. Nur El explains that the ionosphere is very
thin which leaves the surface almost unprotected from the various
beta, gamma and cosmic rays. This high concentration of rays ionizes
the very rare and gaseous atmosphere and together with thermal
currents, creates terrific dust storms. There is also a very thinly
divided dust layer on the ionosphere which helps create the reddish
appearance of the planet. There are also a number of volcanoes,
three of which are of major size; one of these was just barely
visible on the horizon trailing a thin wisp of smoke from its
truncated cone. It was also explained that as Mars has only seven
degrees axis inclination there is not much of a seasonal change.
Water is very scarce on this arid planet; most of the precipitation
falls at the poles. Vegetation is also scarce.
There are a few varieties of *****ly-cacti looking plants. Also
near the polar ice caps, grows a very luxuriant green alga-like
plant that follows the melting snow line. This spongy growth often
attains a height (or depth) of forty to fifty feet. It appears and
disappears with the season as it grows tremendously rapidly, and it
also disintegrates very fast.
There are also a number of species of lizards, reptiles and of
some insects whose hard shells have enabled them to weather the
extreme atmospheric conditions and among them are giant ants which
walk semi-erect on the two hind feet. The guide tells me these are
mutants which were accidentally produced from a small ant in an
atomic experiment ages ago. They are similar to humans in a very
low state of intelligence and at one time it became necessary to
make war on them, as they became so numerous and large. These strange
ant creatures average two to four feet in height and live in rocky
caves. But we did not tarry long on the surface; I followed my guide
to a rather strange looking rock. Then, taking a small whistle from
his coat pocket, he blew one note and although I heard nothing, the
rock immediately swung open disclosing a car-like elevator. We
entered and, after the door closed, I had the familiar dropping
sensation of our own modern elevators.
The trip down took but a few seconds, and, upon stopping, I
stepped forth into what was my first glimpse of a Martian city.
I was immediately impressed by the soft white light that seemed
to come from everywhere. We were standing near the entrance of a
large tube. On Mars the cities are all underground and are connected
together by huge oval metal tubes from three to five hundred feet in
diameter. There are monorail cars as long as our pullman trains which
glide silently and very swiftly from one city to another. The bottoms
of these immense tubes are used for parks, growing foodstuffs and
innumerable small manufacturing plants.
Because of the great distances between the cities, these tubes
have been built only partially submerged. There are emergency air
locks and bulkheads at the ends where they connect to the domes;
other safety and precautionary measures are used to protect the
cities and tunnels in case of breakdowns or outside attack. It is
these tubes which have confused the astronomers on the earth. Some
believe them to be canals. There are also other theories. The
shifting desert sands often cover or uncover them which leads to
further confusion inasmuch as they seem to appear and disappear.
Turning about and looking down into the city is an unforgettable
experience.
Like all cities on Mars, it is built on the floor of a huge metal
dome. These domes are sometimes four or five miles in diameter,
and up to three thousand feet high. They are constructed of huge
curved trusses of a whitish metal, seemingly of a magnesium
compound. These trusses are covered with a metal top and bottom and
the space in between filled with a plastic foam similar to the
construction of the houses. This also gives added protection from
the various cosmic rays as well as sealing in the precious air
supply.
Underneath the roof is an inner shell or a second false shell
which is composed of sheets of a pale blue plastic. This is
suspended from brackets from the dome at a distance of about six
feet; in this space are the many thousands of fluorescent tubes
which make up the lighting system and they reflect downward the
soft radiant light which I first noticed. I was told this light is
very similar to a modified sunlight, and is very healthful and
stimulating to plant life, as well as to the people. As these domes
are built in the bottom of excavations, the sands soon drift over
them and cover them up, giving added protection from the strong
surface rays.
The cities are laid out like a wheel. The center hub is a very
large circular structure which houses the various municipal and
civic governmental departments. Underground is a very large a-omic
power plant (JW I am surprised that these people don't have
f-ee energy power plants.) for supplying the cities' needs. The
streets stretch away from the hub like spokes, and at regular
intervals circular streets are intersected; this is similar to
our national capital.
The streets which radiate from the hub rise at a very gentle rate
of inclination. The houses and other buildings are built on low
elevations which rise like tiers. Walking up one of these streets
gives one the impression of walking on air, as the paving is of a
springy plastic material in a very soft shade of green. Stopping to
inspect some of the houses, I am nearly overwhelmed by their
wondrous beauty, simplicity and charm. In every small, vacant space
in the streets and grounds around the houses are growing plants.
These are mostly fruits and vegetables. They are planted in metal
troughs and other containers. The soil is a mixture of natural and
artificial plant humus and moss. The houses and buildings are
semi-prefabricated in a wide variety of plastic of pastel shades.
The walls are formed of two sheets of thin plastic about two inches
apart. After the walls are fastened together, a liquid foam like
plastic material is injected or blown in between the walls. After
this hardens, it gives the whole structure tremendous strength.
This hardened plastic foam acts also as a good insulator.
There is no problem of heat or cold in a Martian city, with an
abundance of at-mic power. The whole city is air conditioned, free
from dust and fumes, and is maintained at a constant temperature of
about 68 degrees. Further comfort is assured the occupants of each
home by its own air conditioner.
Huge electronic pumps suck in and filter the thin outside air and
raise the pressure to about seven pounds per square inch. This is
somewhat of the same way in which a modern earth airliner
pressurizes the passenger cabins. It also strengthens the overhead
dome structure by pushing out uniformly at all points simultaneously.
As the outside atmosphere is very rare and of a low oxygen
content, the Martian cities are becoming less and less dependent on
that source of air supply. Many thousands of years of ago they
learned how to obtain air from water by electrolysis. They also
make a great effort to create great underground reservoirs near
the ice caps to drain off and store any surplus surface water
which also, along with the oxygen, has become increasingly rare
through the centuries.
At the present time, scientists on Mars are learning to make air
and water synthetically out of other elements. They have also
explored every possible existing subterranean river or lake and
have added much to the dwindling water supply by some important
discoveries. It is estimated that, with careful conservation, they
will have enough water for several thousand years, during which
time other means will have been arrived at for solving this problem.
Mars is very rich in mineral deposits of which some of the
radioactive variety are especially abundant. The planet has also,
like the earth, a molten liquid core of some of the more dense
elements. Scientists on Mars are tapping these deep fiery realms
as an extra or added power supply, although the abundant
radioactive elements are at present more than adequate to supply
all the needs.
