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 I said other times, I wish UMSF had been allowed to be even more involved in this mission. Honestly, we have no expectation of providing direction to the mission. Most of us are simply happy to go along for the ride, and shout out observations from the rumble seat, as we go merrily along.
I hope that future missions will allow the public to be part of the "other side" of a mission. One can always dream, can I? Paolo -------------------- ...Tom
