My apologies for accidentally stepping "out of character" on the other board. Blame it on brain flatulence.

Any intentions to work this into the MarsDawn story? It's supposed to land in Ares Vallis, 19.5 N, 32.8 W. Isn't that quite a long way from Olympus Mons? Which means the NASA probe is in no danger from the J-probe. ;-)

The mission homepage is http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/mpfmir/default.html
Looks like a nicely done site. The probe kinda reminds me of those remote control vehicles that you can buy at places like Radio Shack.
