just wondering (sorry if this has been already asked or if it's a silly question): since a northern mare landing seems to be ruled out until the 2040s, would a southern landing in Ontario work?

To me, a sad day for science and exploration!
Another mission to the martian desert. We already have three rovers on Mars. They forget Venus, Europa, Titan, Enceladus and Triton! Yet Titan may be the right place to better understand the chemistry of carbon and the mechanisms that may lead to the emergence of a carbon-based lifeform. Titan has lakes, seas and rivers but people focus their attention on the martian desert and most people don't know Titan. Really surprinsing! |

Er one of the three rovers on Mars is dead, so there are two operating.
