Your last sentence reminds me of a thought I had when I first saw the shots of the car. You probably could not come up with anything a ten-year-old would think is any cooler than that. And that ten year old will probably be the first person on Mars.

This is completely true.

I was able to see the launch of the Atlantis back when I was pretty young. Of course, I dropped the camera, and since it was film, when it opened all the pictures were lost. Ever since I've been a space nut.

But more importantly, it will likely be an all female crew sent to Mars. Women do not require the caloric intake a man does (less muscle mass), so fewer supplies are needed. Women also don't seem to experience the degeneration of vision men do in space. Nobody knows why yet.

So we need to get 10 year old girls excited about this stuff.
