Today, as we know of, Mars is the only planet that is populated only by robots.
phobos535
What about Venus? Dead robots, but still...
You could say it has been depopulated of robots.

You can make fun of the questions he asked (he didnt ask this 1) but theres a lot of ppl out there who dont understand why we went to Mars.

The Apollo mission gave us transistors to replace vaccum tunes. And gave credence to duct tape
equityforpunks
Nah they didn't. Transistors were invented and developed way before Apollo program.
I am not one of those people.

John Bardeen invented the transistor while working at Bell Labs. The telephone gave us the transistor (and laser and CCD, C, Unix, etc, etc)
Thanks for the correction, it used to be Nasa drove innovation - budget cuts I guess

Fox News is right-biased. Rightwingers typically have a problem understanding the virtue of progress, be it technological or social.
Yeah man, right wingers are so stupid, but I love mass generalizations!
...Sez the person who validates it by not understanding the zing that NASA guy delivered.
