A journey from Earth to Mars could in the future take just 39 days -- cutting current travel time nearly six times -- according to a rocket scientist who has the ear of the US space agency. Franklin Chang-Diaz, a former astronaut and a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), says reaching the Red Planet could be dramatically quicker using his high-tech VASIMR rocket, now on track for liftoff after decades of development.

And this technology is going to be released as Steven Greer says, in the new era. We're going to insist, and this secrecy and holding on till billions perish trying to keep superiority in the next era, is really going to end.

They could come up with a working ion drive or whatever but there won't be enough money on earth to build it.
Our Grandparents in 3 years built a rocket to take us to the moon and back.We have been trying for 8 and still can't do it.

Sorry to disappoint all you Star Trekkers but man will never travel to the stars.It is nothing more than a dream and will always be.
We as a race are destined to stand here on this, mostly water with some dry dirt, rock in space and gaze at the stars at night.
We will never live together as one and with the way things are regressing your children will have it worse than their great grand parents did.
We would rather spend billions of dollars as a race developing weapons to kill each other better and studying how to live forever than how to live in peace and harmony and making every life a quality experience.

But then again, we don't have German scientists telling us what to do.
