Re: Spirt and Opportunity Mission Thread

One of my co-workers has her 5 year old granddaughter with her today. They've been following the mission together since the first landing, and while her granddaughter doesn't fully comprehend it, she's learning a lot. She still thinks the rovers are just toys for big people (and maybe she's not too far off on that) but she's learned and accepted that other planets exist and it is possible to reach and explore them. We've set her up at a computer today and hooked her up to the kids Mars page, and she's now happily playing games (I think she's still playing the one where you get to choose ten things to take to Mars). We had to chase the other adults out of there or they would be playing the games...
