I've started a new blog on this topic at http://futureplanets.blogspot.com/
This blog supplements UMSF by allowing on topic discussions that include politics and other topics not appropriate here. The first entry is up with some additional news on the MSL funding and schedule problems. -------------------- |

I'm hoping the research here pans out
http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/SiC/ It would be great for a Venus rover, or even a Venus lander. Powering it and connecting to it would be interesting. Hell, maybe we'll have to launch a Venus lander/rover in a giant OVEN to keep it warm enough to operate! But I agree... 10 years? I'd be surprised if we see anything other than paper rovers and landers for the next 25. -------------------- Space Enthusiast Richard Hendricks
