This issue features a very nice geologic overview article titled "The Many Faces of Mars", by Philip Christensen. (The inventor of TES). The author is kind of amazed about how much the findings of Oppy and Spirit differ. Spirit being in what seems to be an ancient dessert without any traces of past liquid water and Oppy having landed on what appears to be an ancient lakebed. Great reading for only $5!

-An editorial about the SpaceShuttle titled: "Lost in Space". (Need I say more?)
-An article by Mark Alpert called: Feeling the Pinch. Flying the Shuttle means cutting some science. (canceling the $4 million per year Voyager program is such an... "interesting" idea)
