Five Years of Spirit on Mars
I normally don't go re-posting the blogs that I know most of us here read regularly, but I have to point out what a wonderful job Emily did in digesting five years of Spirit's exploration into one commentary/column of under 1800 words. I can't wait to read Opportunity's story later this month. http://www.planetary.org/blog/article/00001796/ -------------------- If Occam had heard my theory, things would be very different now.

As has been done previously with Mars Rover anniversaries, let me mark our celebrations with some images to download.
These celebrations go over a few weeks between Spirit's and Opportunity's landing dates. So let's pass on our thoughts and congratulations through this thread. Here is a desktop logo I'd like to share... plus posters and more on my blog. Stuart Atkinson has also prepared another of his brilliant poems (which I've included on the poster design). It is my honor to dedicate these images to the men and women on the Rover teams who have worked so hard to continue operating these amazing explorers on the surface of that distant red world. Astro0 Edit: I received a request for an additional desktop based on one of the posters. It's on the blog... |
