While all eyes are trained on the MRO and the Shuttle, it's easy to forget that the two Mars Exploration Rovers (MER), Spirit and Opportunity, are still operating on the surface of the Red Planet.
I'm currently watching a program on NASA-TV which gives viewers some idea of the fascinating Martian discoveries that the Rovers have made. The program is a taped audience-participation event hosted by Bill Nye the Science Guy and features live presentations and interviews with Matt Golombek of the MER team at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and a graduate student involved in the Rover program.
It's times like these that I rediscover my love for science over the grungy tawdriness of politics.
