Someone has to start this, might as well be me!



MERRY CHRISTMAS to all UMSF members! Thanks to everyone for all their pictures and words over the past year, which made it so fascinating and enjoyable. And, as always, a special thanks to Doug for setting all this up in the first place. We'd all be totally lost without it, wouldn't we?

Here's to a happy and successful 2008 - Go Phoenix!!

Oh, and thanks to Glen for giving me permission to use his great Spirit sfx image!

All the best to everyone on UMSF for Christmas and the New Year.
Let's send our Christmas wishes to the MER teams for all THEY have done for us throughout 2007 (and since Jan'04).
Imagine Steve Squyres as Santa and the MER team as his elves

Thanks also to everyone at the Deep Space Network for getting the data there and back.
You make my job incredibly fun and exciting everyday.



From my family and friends, both human and robotic,
All the best for the Festive Season and into the future.

PS: To Stu, thanks for the great Christmas card and your words throughout the year.

Special PS: Thanks to Doug for making UMSF possible and bringing us Christmas cheer everyday.

PPS: To Spirit, there's a special present for you, but I left it over at Von Braun (you'll need to get there)
PPPS: To Opportunity, I left your present somewhere out on Victoria's ejecta blanket (you'll need to get out of the crater and drive around some more to find it).
