Everybody is making fun of Mars. This is serious!

We have machinery on another planet. Machinery that is beaming images back to Earth. Machinery that travelled millions of miles to get there. This should be a major story. But instead, we are treated to the latest hijinks of Brittany Spears and Pete Rose.

Imagine if, in 1969, when we were landing on that moon, that the news media ignored it in favor of talking about Soupy Sales and Yoko Ono.

Of course it's series. I for one am enjoying the heck out of it. I'd like to visit in my lifetime. Likelyhood of that is low, but I still wanna go.
