I'm sitting here at my PC watching CNN which is reporting on the status of SPIRIT landing on Mars.

I've always found the space program very interesting, but after the past three years competiting in FIRST I have a new found respect for the engineers that design, build and deploy technology for space.

I think the Mar program is indicative of what FIRST is all about and I was just wondering how many people (students, teachers, parents, engineers) are following the landing?
