Mars - the rover is still sending pictures!


Mars Crater
Okay, this is really amazing. Cornell scientists sent a rover (actually more than one) to Mars a few years ago and estimated that if things went well, the rover would send pictures back to earth for about 90 days. 900 days later the rover is still sending pictures!!!! The link above will take you to the latest Cornell press release. I find this fascinating. Don't you?
