The news from Mars...

The news from Mars is good news, and you can read it here for yourself, about the first test of Curiosity's laser for analyzing rocks. And there's pictures...




I think this whole thing is just amazing, and I can hardly wait until it gets to the spots where it really wants to do its investigations. 

When I was a kid, away back when, we read comics about Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, and we never really thought anything like that would ever actually happen in real life. And here we are, seventy years later watching it happen. It makes me wonder what the next seventy years might bring.
