Just a couple of things
Posted at 19:48 in .
First of all, I'm still kind of disgusted with the fact that the media has completely forgotten about our rovers on Mars. These things were designed to have 90-sol (Mars "days") missions...well Spirit just passed its 180th sol and Opportunity is at 160 sols. These amazing engineering accomplishments are almost completely ignored by the media.
Second of all...check out this picture taken the other day on Mars:
Yeah...those are clouds...water clouds. That picture just freaks me out a little bit. It looks so "Earthly." Just awesome...
Finally...add Tony's blog to your daily read. He writes some fun stuff!

Oh my gosh, that picture is way cool.
Who would have thunk it.
Clouds on Mars.
***An aside, did MFC email you about his ineedaclue.com website he just acquired?
FUNNY!

wow, I get mentioned in the same post as Mars rovers? It feels so, "un-Earthly"!
as for the post before this (or I guess it would be *after* this, technically), I have no clue about server clusters, but Terraserver rocks the body that rocks the party, fo' sho'!
Oh, and thanks for the props! *grin*
