>The Mars Rovers Spirit and Opportunity are the Energizer Bunnies of
>planetary exploration. Designed to last for only 90 days, they are still
>going strong after nearly two years. Their journeys on Mars have provided
>exquisite detail of the planet's surface, proving definitively that liquid
>water once existed on this now arid world. Steve Squyres, the Principal
>Investigator for the Mars Exploration Rover (MER) project, has now
>published a book about what it took to get to Mars.

>Carl Sagan famously said, "We are made of star-stuff." In the last few
>years, discoveries have revealed how this star-stuff could have played a
>role in life's origin. While such findings provide hope that life is
>widespread in the universe, it also creates a challenge for astrobiologists
>searching for life on other worlds.
