Not that I saw yet. Mar's Rover homepage

Cool I guess.

I suppose color pics in this day and age would be too much to ask for.

What, is it sleeping?

I think it's great that it made it. I wish people would get interested in space again.

Nah..

There are just a few opportunities a day to communicate with Earth - and for them to communicate with it.

Cheers to Nasa!:beer:

My name is on it too! w00t!!

How is your name on it?

a while ago there was a thing on NASA's webpage where you could enter your name. Basically they kept a running list of all the names people entered, then I think they stored them on some form of media, I imagine a dvd disc of some kind. Anyways they attached that with the spacecraft, so in essence all those names were sent to mars.

The only "name on DVD" page i ever saw was this one for Comet tempel 1. I dont believe there was a same thing for the mars landing. I may be mistaken. check out the site and see if you guys submitted your names to this one.

This is really cool. Can't wait for all the color pictures to come. Looks like Nasa has gotten past the hardest part; getting on the surface safely.

Everyone be sure and watch the PBS special on these two Mars landers tonight on PBS. 7 CST.

Yeah, don't you know? They have to photoshop out the splotches of green grass and rolling meadows.

The one for Mars was about a year before the deep impact one... my name is on the deep impact one too... I've got the certificates to prove it Looking for the defunct mars-name link now...

Here's the archived thread on ATOT from almost 2 years ago...
send your name to mars

 

[Descartes]

Well, since this thread was bumped, you all you check out the COLOR IMAGES.

 

[DrPizza]

well, since I asked this question in the other new thread posted *after* descartes added the color picture to this thread, does anyone know how large a poster that can be printed from a 40MB file? And, recommendations as to which software to chop it into 8x10 pieces for the printer?
