Check the dateline on that story.
April 1, 2021. Not current enough for you? 5 weeks ago. It's not News and Links (although it's a link) it's Academic (e.g, Science) I believe it fits in this category.
@waitingforgodo What's the point of this? Pointless? I thought so.
@barjoe where has she "started her astronaut training to be the first person to walk on Mars"?
@waitingforgodo I was responding to your question about the timeline of this link. She may not become the first person. They may not be able to walk on Mars by 2033. I'll be 76 in 2033. She's been mentioned as the first person to walk on Mars in many links for several years now. [boredpanda.com]
@barjoe yeah ino but she's not an astronaut in training and April Fool's Day seemed to be the perfect date to perpetuate the myth. All good.
@waitingforgodo No. It wasn't an April Fools joke. There is a lot about her. I chose that link because it is very recent. Didn't think about April 1st. It's real tho.
