I think MSL should be given a better name! Like what it was done with the MER rovers(Spirit-Opportunity). We could propose some! I propose the names "Eureka!" and "Innovation". What about you? We could then(after some months maybe) vote for the best of them!

Wow, I'm glad it's not just me that thinks they're all dreadful.
An unfortunate demise is not the first thing that springs to mind when thinking of Galileo, or indeed Endurance, but is certainly is what Amelia Earhart's associated with. Come on, let's face it, the jokes will just write themselves the moment there's the slightest glitch, issue, or hint of a problem. The only appeal of Amelia is that it has a little personality. The rest are just... beige, and a soft pastel beige, at that. I'm with the earlier suggestion: Emmessell is better than any of those. -------------------- --

Female aviators do not, of course, start and end at Earhart. Bessie Coleman arguably did more for the aviation industry - and then-current racial perceptions.
