We are getting unbelievable science here. These probes are outdoing all their previous renditions then some.

And the next gen stuff? Will do the same. Mars is our playing ground for science.

It appars as though the "blueberys" are harder material than the "stuff" that holds some of them. This one took quite a shine from Opportunity's buffing job . . .

I saw a documentary that predicted the next gen could carry flying robots, they'd have to have flapping wings because a fixed wing aerial vehicle would need to go about 400mph to stay aloft.

I also would like to see a probe send back video..

I'm really going to miss these rovers when they finally poop out. Maybe I'll hold a wake or something.
