Mars? Is that where all the MARSupials come from?

“Of course we’d actually have to build some roads first…”

I wish the exploration activities on Mars were getting as much TV coverage as the landing had. That was great.

The road(s) less traveled.

I’ll never forget listening to the morning commute in PDX one morning. Several of the news stations all had their “own” helicopter for reporting. One time t he guy reporting mentioned that there was going to be a delay along one such and such a road due to an emergency landing of a helicopter. Then he went on to say sorry folks, that helicopter is us.

Mars ain’t the kind of Place, to raise your kids.Happy 90th Birthday William Shatner.

Good thing that’s an all-arean-vehicle!

Sponsored by the American tax payers.

“And be sure to put on plenty of sunscreen, folks! It’s another day of sunshine here on the Red Planet, and that red is for sunburn if you don’t use a high enough SPF!”

I am soooo stoked to see Ingenuity’s first flight!

Today’s weather: cold, dry with a 5% chance of aliens.

Mars is the only known planet entirely populated by robots.

Followed shortly thereafter by a head-on collision with Opportunity.

Ray Walston started a mass exodus from there.
