Letters: Mars vs. Earth

Re “Mars test-drive goes smoothly,” Aug. 23

The focus on this ridiculous adventure to Mars while our planet is circling the drain is the height of insanity. Instead of focusing our resources in a last-ditch effort to save our Earth, we are embarked on a fantasy voyage.

Maybe the reality of our situation is so awful that our last grasp on our sanity is avoidance.
