still, nasa says it offers value for money. making that case in recent months, nasa has announced the discovery of liquid water on mars in warmer seasons. because water is necessary for known forms of life, its presence means life might be possible on mars and water might also give future manned missions to mars a measure of sustainment. mars make obamas 2010 decision to cancel the constellation program and nasas manned mars mission look short-sighted? pat: no, i don't think so, john. do in space and we should be doing in space. my belief is interspace. mars is pretty far out there even though it's one of the planets that's pretty close to venus is on the other side. look, we went to the moon, which is close. mars has, in terms of gravity, it's not as big of planet as the united states, so the gravity is not quite as strong. and the idea, if you're thinking of it, of sending a man to mars, i see no purpose to it, and i can tell you one thing about him, he ain't or she ain't coming back.

and if you want to join that killer team - there's a help wanted sign at nasa. the space agency is hiring. right now, there are 47-nasa astronauts and the agency is looking for the *next generation of space pioneers possibly to put boots on mars. they're accepting applications from december thru february. we can now actually read the deal that's been creating tidal waves in washington. this morning the text of the trans pacific partnership agreement was released. my colleage, cbs 2 news anchor scott sanborn joins me now to explain some of what lawmakers are digesting. karen - the agreement is comprised of 30 chapters and hundreds of pages, so it'll take a while for everything to be hashed out. still, this release gives the obama administration details to point to. since before the t-p-p deal was reached, the president touted its merits but critics worried it would cost american jobs. all the while, what the agreement actually *said was kept behind closed doors.but now that it's out in the open lawmakers can debate the finer points. it lays out plans for trade in

he was told it had been purchased at a nasa auction. johnny worley, scrapyard owner) "i knew what it was, but anybody else would have scrapped it." that explains how it wound up here. but perhaps a more relevant question is "why did nasa sell it?" ( otha vaughan, retired nasa engineer) "if it's flight hardware, you want to take care of it. if it's test hardware, you don't necessarily want to keep it. there's a bunch of relays here probably from the battery system." it's weathered and worn and missing a few parts. "what do you think it measures? 72 inches." but the specs match up. and it's johnny worley's hope that a buyer will match up when he auctions it off later this month. johnny worley, scrapyard owner) "i would really love to see someone take this and put it back the way it was." ironically, nasa has reached out to worley saying they wouldn't mind having it back. one thing's for sure, even though it'll never make it to the moon, this little artifact's journey here on planet earth appears to be far from over. >> free beer, wings an

a lot of people think of that as being a failure of nasa's. i don't think that's really fair because they never got to build the shuttle they wanted to build. they had a very innovative idea for a shuttle that would be easier and cheaper to turn around, and congress kept kind of talking them down over time. so what they wound up with was it was clunkier, it was harder to maintain, it wasn't as safe we found out when challenger happened many 1986. -- in 1986. so the history of the shuttle's complicated, but it's not their, i think, to lay the game at -- it's not fair, i think, to lay the game at nasa's feet. i'm still not sure two weeks would have been realistic, but it would have had a different history. >> it seems like there's a lot of passion of going to mars, but human endurance is such it's hard to imagine space flight beyond that parameter. with all the images that we're seeing in the news that we're getting from pluto, do either of you see the ability of unmanned space flight to capture the same passion? i know innately it probably can'
