Astronomers also think that perhaps a small (26) of water vapor could
be found on Mars In 1887, an Italian astronomer, Giovanni Schiaparelli, discovered markings on Mars' surface These markings looked like canals This finding led astronomers to believe that since water exists on Mars, life forms could exist as well
Trang 4However, there are others who feel that life on Mars is not possible This is because there is little or no trace of oxygen on the planet In 1965, the Mariner IV capsule managed to take photographs of the planet It discovered that the only forms of life found are vegetation like fungi and mosses (27) people remain fascinated by the idea that there could one day be life on Mars

The Rise of Robots
As kids, our grandparents frequently scared us by talking about how difficult life was when they were growing up They mentioned walking miles to school in the snow, or doing hours of manual labour for little pay Life has changed greatly since then, and it seems
to get easier year by year In fact, with the help of robots we soon might have to do much at all But is this a good thing?
By 2030, ifs estimated that robotics will be a $10 billion business worldwide Companies are already starting to integrate them into the workforce The electronics manufacturer Foxconn is drawing up plans to launch a factory within the next 10 years that's completely staffed by robot workers Meanwhile, an American company Briggo has invented a robot that serves gourmet-quality coffee to customers With the push of a button
it will crush coffee beans, measure exact quantities of water, and even wave a steam wand
to ensure customers get the perfect cream on top Unlike human baristas, it can serve multiple drinks at once and work all day and night without a break
Robots are also invading our homes The Rooma is a mini-robot that vacuums rooms automatically according to a schedule The Robomow is a device that will cut the grass for you while you sit in the shade Then there's the Nanda clocky, an alarm clock that makes sure that even the deepest sleepers get up on time The clock is attached to a pair of wheels, and it will randomly move around the room Once you finally catch it, you're probably too awake to hit the snooze button Although these early home robots are somewhat basic, they will likely become more capable as times goes on
Although robots certainly help us to eliminate tedious tasks, many people are
concerned about a future filled with robots Some fear that humanity will start to decline
if machines do everything for us Others have even warned about the robot rebellion,
in which robots become so smart that they may decide to turn on their masters These ideas may seem a bit far-fetched, but there are certainly lots of questions that need to be answered before everyone opens up to the idea of a robotic future
