The LA Times featured MSL in one of their articles!  Also exciting is that Dad is in the photo!  The photo is of mission control, and Dad is the one on the left, talking to his buddies on the right.

Here’s the article: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-mars-curiosity-landing-20120715,0,5399348.story

Congratulations to the MSL team!  Exactly one week to landing; we hope all goes well!

I have some cousins who have a blast reading Marstimr.  One of them, Ryan, has been emailing me with some great questions about Mars.  He gave me permission to post our question and answer correspondence here, so I hope you will enjoy it as much as we did!

*Not all of his questions are about MSL; this is a wider view of Mars exploration*

Thanks again to Ryan and his family!
