As an avid science fiction fan these images of Mars are simply … well … other-worldly.  Just the idea that we’re seeing images from another planet, up close an personal, is just unreal.  I can wait to see what happens next.

By the way, if you’re looking for some excellent scienc fiction, emphasis on the science, dealing with the colonization of the red planet you have to read Kim Stanley Robinson’s fantastic Mars trilogy

I’m sorry, but I can’t bring myself to have much sympathy for Hillary Clinton at this moment.  Senator Clinton put herself in the position of having to defend what has to be one of the most stupid political mistakes in recent history.  As I said before, she should know better.
