Would just like to mention - some of you may remember this, although most of the TiBBers involved aren't around anymore.

A few years ago, I put my name down for this - they were doing some thing where Nasa would write the names of everyone who signed up, down and send them up onto Mars, with this rover in this mission.

Made a thread on TiBB and a whole bunch of us got involved and sent our names to NASA on their site.

Looks like it's finally happened.

You will be the people the aliens kill first

:laugh2:

fingers crossed

I find things like this so exciting, science is such a genuine interest to me.
