Invoking the spirit of "Star Trek" in a scholarly article entitled "To Boldly Go," two scientists contend human travel to Mars could happen much more quickly and cheaply if the missions are made one-way. They argue that it would be little different from early settlers to North America, who left Europe with little expectation of return.

"The main point is to get Mars exploration moving," said Dirk Schulze-Makuch of Washington State University, who wrote the article in the latest "Journal of Cosmology" with Paul Davies of Arizona State University. The colleagues state — in one of 55 articles in the issue devoted to exploring Mars — that humans must begin colonizing another planet as a hedge against a catastrophe on Earth.
Mars is a six-month flight away, possesses surface gravity, an atmosphere, abundant water, carbon dioxide and essential minerals. They propose the missions start by sending two two-person teams, in separate ships, to Mars. More colonists and regular supply ships would follow.
Hey you could definately get away from paying that child support. Go get my baby daddy he's on Mars.

Bill Clinton was on the The Hangover 2" set and he just shot a cameo. Bill was spotted on the set in Thailand yesterday (left) where we're told extra security was added for his presence.

Our spies say they saw Bill walk on the set and were told by crew members he was filming a cameo. None of the people we spoke to, however, saw Bill actually step in front of the camera.
Although some people associated with the flick have told us Bill just "hung out," we've now confirmed he did indeed shoot a cameo.
In the photo on the right, you can see Zach Galifianakis and Bradley Cooper riding in a rickshaw -- Zach is sporting a shaved head like in the pictures we posted earlier this week.
Looks like it might be cool.
