Agreed...sometimes I can't believe what an important part of my own life their exploits have become. Seeing new vistas on an alien world almost every day for three years...this must have been how the great explorers felt, and with the advent of the Internet millions of us are now privileged to share this feeling.
Congratulations aren't enough; heart-felt thank-yous aren't enough, either, but unfortunately they'll have to do. Thanks to Dr. Adler, Steve Squyres & the whole MER team for giving us all an important and valuable experience...our lives would have been poorer without it. THIS is what my tax dollars are for!!! -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
