Yes, yes, yes it’s all very clever and everything but in the grand scheme of things Mars is pretty booring

I’d be more worried about the ‘Shadows’ than green flares

Mars may be ‘boring’ but the landing of ‘Curiosity’ is like something out of ‘Thunderbirds’! 😀

No Mars bars were made in Slough and Citroens were also manufactured there so it make sense to send a C2. Only problem is they make duff cars for Earth so the chances of it working on Mars are remote!:D

Mars is probably the best place for Smart cars !!

Remember that Mars’ gravity is about 40% of that of the earth. Nevertheless, it was an amazing feat.

Mars itself may be a bit on the dull side but there is something inherently impressive about successfully landing something that weighs more than a Smart Car on another planet!
Most people in the UK would rather have a bag-of-chips than a similar UK mission…..let’s not encourage them! :rolleyes:

Mars might be boring but there is plenty of space and where else would you be allowed to play with a RC buggy that has lasers on it?
