'Red Dragon' Mission Mulled as Cheap Search for Mars Life

Doug and me did on the last page. Given its an engineering mission it was almost self-evident SpaceX should put them on, both to document how the EDL goes and for PR purposes back on Earth.
Other instruments are, as discussed, a tad trickier and less impressive to the general public. Meteorology data just doesn't have the same pizzazz, for some reason.... |
