absolutely incredible IMO.
it will be amazing to see color photos of the horizon, especially from a different world.

no shit.
i'm really stoked about this whole lander thing.
NOVA ran a special on it last night. it was great. i highly recommend that all you guys check it out tommorrow when they re-air it. 'cept this time with the new high-res photographs that spirit will be beaming back soon.
these first photographs are only preliminary ones they're using to calibrate shit and check up on the lil' bastard.

the viking mars lander took pictures from the surface of mars back in the 70's. but it didn't move around. and it was pretty limited in the information it collected.

am i the only person unimpressed? its just some crappy pictures of rocks. it would be exciting if the probes were able to build little towns on mars with little aqueducts and a town sundial, but spending billions of $$s just for some pics doesnt seem worth it to me.

they are after water or former signs of life... er.. more signs of former life, because they already found some fossils of dead micro-0rganisms.

if they want water...turn on a tap! we will have plenty of time to search for dryed up canals and dig up fossils once we have build settlements on mars, there are obviously no scary martians there today.
