I was just enjoying a Snickers Cruncher together with a cool Beck's Gold when I saw your photo #-o and thought mine was the better choice! :P

Anyway, at Mars you need both powerful orbiters and rovers working hand in hand. MRO will make images of such high res that it will in some aspects virtually reach the resolution of a nav cam on a rover. It will have instruments for remote chemical analysis. If that's not exciting, then what is?
Wiping my feet before entering the airlock. The straight science is a fantastic pursuit on its own, but its all leading somewhere in the end.
