Now, if this was just some hills in Algeria, it might not be so impressive... but it's Mars, after all.

The climate on Mars is getting gradually hotter, and the ice caps are receding somewhat. So, if we have any hope of preserving Mars for our children we HAVE to stop the martians from driving SUVs and emitting CFCs into the air that cause global warming.

Yeah, look at all those ATV tracks in the distance. Damn kids! They're going to ruin Mars, too!

mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids.

hmmmm....I could be wrong, but it doesn't look like Mars is ever going to be a hot tourist destination. Maybe if they legalize gambling?
