I’m guessing the EPA will have something to say about this. s/

This will cause Martian warming for sure.

How many times have they landed or crashed into Uranus.
That’s gotta hurt.
YES I am that immature at 52 that I had to post this.
Shouldn’t really be a shock to those that know me :)

How many times have they landed or crashed into Uranus. I don't know but I've had several prostate biopsies and I sure wouldn't want one of those things to crash into my
body.

Too many landers in the low lands. They need probes into the highlands. Of course, any rovers would have to be more robust than those they have sent.

Those Martians will soon be protesting... Are you kidding me? After reading Mr Wells' history, that near miss with the "Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator" and the 1996 Mars Attack, they should dismantle their defense weapons and surrender peaceably!

NASA & JPL need to ensure Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee is informed so she can ask which one found the flag planted by Neil Armstrong.

I would like to believe engineers studied the strengths and weaknesses, success and failures of every rover and lander and the next versions will be practically indestructible and unstoppable.
I'd like to believe that.
For example. Will the next version have a blower or sweeper to remove dust from the solar panels so over time dust build up doesn't diminish the efficiency of the solar panels after a dust storm? Two independent batteries as backup? Redundant fail safe systems? Like Arthur C. Clarke said, 'the Ramans did everything in 3'.
Engineers should consult with people from Boston Dynamics who likely have novel solutions to potential problems.
