Aha! So that's what the Martian picture color conspiracy is all about. NASA is trying to sell Earth to the Martians!

I remember that one. I think there was also a satellite repair mission (might have been a Hubble) that they had a Joe's Trucking sign or something similar. I think the Rovers need bumper stickers, maybe something like "My Other Car is Spirit", or "Honk if you like Mossbauer".

The MER Project Manager at JPL was sporting a t-shirt that said, "My Other Car Is On Mars!"

My Rovers went to Mars and all I got was a lousy 100 gigabytes of data.

The JPL guys have bumper stickers that say "my other car is on mars".

I used to have a little sticker on one of my telescopes that said, "My other scope is HST!"
