"Hitting the Road on Mars: The Legacy of the 2004 Mars Exploration Rovers
and the next Missions to Mars"
Since the beginning of time, people have been entranced by the night sky,
and particularly, by our nearest planetary neighbor- Mars. From the early
Mariner and Viking missions, to the more recent voyages- Mars has been a
challenging destination. The 'Mars Exploration Rovers' landed on Mars in
January 2004, and have been successfully exploring for over 5 years. Come
hear the story of these ongoing rover missions, and about our next steps in
the robotic exploration of Mars.
