Comunicating with Martains game

[XH29N0G]

600 and counting.

Funny thing, I ran a class last week where the kids were in groups that chose some aspect of Mars science/engineering/economics/history to research and give a series of group presentations in class.  Some hiccups, some of my own hiccups in making it work.  Overall they did a great job.   Really creative and fun to see. They had done a lot of research, were engaged, asking questions.

Thought I'd share.

Comunicating with Martains game. It is sad to see 24 pages of useless crap, not related to our hobby.

Other MoPar sites make fun of it.

Did you see that insight (the spacecraft with seismic sensors) detected tremors on Mars?  Pretty cool.

I forgot the number, is it 610?

The one thing I can never figure out with this lander is why they keep parking it on the edge of a cliff.

 615   now we're going to mine the moon   for what dust?

[XH29N0G]

616  Maybe Helium 3 for reactors that beam the energy back.  Just don't stand too close to where it comes down.  Or step away from your vehicle before pressing the energize button.

620  Thanks.  I was just talking about the sun and flairs today in the same class that we were talking about mars in a few years ago and a few posts ago.  I'll send this on to them.

Looks like India made it to the moon successfully, the Russians, not so much.
