Today I'm taking part in the National Wormhole Day Blog Hop, hosted by Luanne Smith , Laura Eno and Stephen Tremp.
What would you do or where would you go if you could traverse a wormhole through space or time just once? One safe round trip passage. Would you go back in time and talk some sense into a younger you? Go five years into the future and bring back the Wall Street Journal? See just how the heck the Great Pyramids of Giza were really built? View what the other side of the universe looks like? Kill Hitler?
So, what would I do if I could travel through a wormhole and back again? Hmmm...
I would jump in my wormhole and travel back billions and billions of years and then pay the Planet Mars a visit. Why? Well, for those who don't really follow the likes of Curiosity, astronomers have recently discovered gullies and valleys across the surface of Mars that looks like it was created by water. Whether these were huge, deep lakes that carved their way across the land or whether they were just mere streams that, over the course of centuries, eroded deep fissures that snaked by, who knows.
But, if it was water, and as much as what they say it may have been, was it enough to sustain life? If so, where is this life - and WHERE is this water? Why is the planet so dry and barren now? What happened to it?
Now that is something I'd like to know.
OR...
I could give Justine Beiber the key to my wormhole but forget to give him the return ticket (snigger snigger)...
Ahhh the possibilities are endless :)
