sure it's phobos we're talking about...but hey...this experiment is pointless. so what if they make it, we could simulate martian conditions here on earth relatively easily. i see no point in sending our organisms to see if they can survive...ffs, we're looking for alien ones.
it seems to me that Russia likes to play the penis size game. they are doing this just to spite the Americans.
Russian engineers are good, but their leaders are corrupt mobsters...so i have more faith in NASA when it comes to security regulations.
in other news
scientists make self replicating chemicals.

yes russians...life out there is possible, why the **** send our own stuff there, we trashed our solar system quite enough.
But what caught my eye was another payload on this heady mission - detailed in a couple of recent articles ? that Russia is also dispatching on the flight the "world's hardiest" or "toughest" organisms found here on Earth, sealed up in a bio-container for the Earth-to-Mars/Mars to Earth three year trek. The bio-module will provide 30 small tubes for individual microbe samples.
