Sorry, just had to share this fact with you all. Spirit succesfully landed on Mars, and hopefully it's twin will also. We're going to have a lot of data coming in, and hopefully Bush announcing something big during the State of the Union.

Feel free to discuss anything about the space program. Preferably how we should get our butts to Mars ASAP.

More instruments, better technology, more questions. That's why.

It's an entire planet. That's like asking, why have more than one camera on Earth?

Isn't this NASA's second attempt of having a rover machine land on Mars?



Yeah, and, amazingly, the first one was successful too. That was Pathfinder. The orbital craft is still operation and sending back data.

You failed to mention that your father is a JPL engineer, making that even more humorous and ironic.
