The two 90-sols-in-90-seconds movies are well worth a watch if you are interested. See your 800 Million USD at work in time-lapse mode.

They might be slow in real time, but the two rovers have traversed some pretty nasty terrain. Well done Spirit and Opportunity!

Sorry, no aliens to be seen. Oh - except the rovers of course, as they're Aliens on mars. :)

It's a fake! We never went to Mars. Those images were taken 97 miles outside of Reno and Dick Cheney pocketed the $800 million. :mad:

Very cool!

I hadn't seen those and I check the site every couple of days.
