*dissolves giggling* Lemme guess, the Martians have WMD and are planning terrorist activities, such as carrying an almanac openly. :D I'd actually rather expect the Martian surface to be covered with the New And Improved WMD, WIBTBB: Weapons of Itty Bitty Tiny Boo-Boos. Those martian rocks are dangerous! Why, you could stub a toe on one of them! Heck, you could probably break your toe! Then if you fell down and landed in the dust, it would obviously become an interplanetary incident!
Interestingly enough, we recently watched a video (at work; it was probably intended to inspire us to think outside of the box, not ponder alternate careers in aerospace) of an interview with Donna Shirley, the person in charge of the Sojourner rover project. The interviewer asked her if she thought we'd make it to Mars; she figures we'll have a man on Mars in maybe 2030.
