So, when NASA tells you there is water on Mars, or there are a billion Earths out there..you gotta suspend disbelief, otherwise...they fail you science class. What Truth gotta do with it, Right? Now I gotta figure out how to download the movie "The Martian" before Oct 2nd. 'suspend disbelief' is the only way you can enjoy a good NASA news item. It's called gettin High on Science.
