Quote from an article online:

Cabrol also said that currently prolonged space travel isn't the best thing for a person's system because of gravity. Such a trip would take at least half a year. It's feasible, but the astronaut would have to recover from the trip once they landed. Luckily, there appears to be some gravity on Mars.

"appears to be some gravity"? Silly me... I thought we had had probes or something land on Mars... I thought we *knew* whether there was gravity there or not, not made some wild guesses based on what *appears* to be true. But you know... I might be wrong.
