back at home, the martian front

had i been able to afford to travel home this week to be with my sister, which i couldn't, i also would have taken the time to tune in to an out of this world conference. the mars society this week is hosting a huge Mars summit in Eugene, Oregon. Just a few miles from my house, i would have been transported over 34,000,000 miles away to mars, just by dropping by the Hilton. check out this article, about as shallow as a martian ocean, from Eugene's paper, the register guard.

in other martian related news, i was checking out my above linked 'new mars' what i came upon a great article about how to encourage public interest in the exploration of mars. it involves four letters: IMAX. check out the article here.
have you seen mars lately?--->
