Mars rover sets sights on distant crater

Above and Beyond

The rovers have gone far above and beyond their original mission.

I (for one) hopes the rover makes it - from a pure geek point of view, it's a great example of what can be done when people over-engineer something in the right way. Almost Apollo like from NASA. Good show!

How to destroy 60 hard drives an hour

Easy way to do a few at a time....

From experience, a .3030 at 20 paces can do 3 at a time.

Two shots at about $.50/pop = something that would sound like Baghdad for $11.5k.

And much more fun too.
