Ach't! Silly me, I had the NASA page with the countdown open in another window but got distracted by work! Doesn't look like there are any visuals, so perhaps I didn't miss much.

That's great, NASA spent $520 Million dollars for Mars Phoenix project that will collect dust, take pixelated photos and study the history of water and habitability potential in the Martian arctic's ice-rich soil.
While every day American's are have a difficult time putting food on the table for their families. Don't get me wrong, I love science and the space exploration in general but Amercia and our beloved government have all of our priorities out of whack.
- This isn't out of whack. There's lots of things less important than this that could be cut to put food on your table.ribit

America would probably lose the war in Iran just like Iraq, Afanganistan, Vietnam and the Bay of Pigs... Don't forget to wear your lapel pin of the American Flag!!!!

we won the war in iraq and afghanistan in about 48hrs of bombing. we took apart their militaries and goverments. the rest is nation building.
vietnam wasn't necessarily a loss. We lost 60k troops but managed to kill 2 milion. those are pretty good numbers. and the bay of pigs? you are an idiot.- We won the battle each war and lost the war, period!********
