I am sad that I have not followed Curiosity as closely as I had planned after the landing.

Very humbling. And the closest I'm every going to get to Mars.

Thanks for the link.

Granny Annie: I subscribe to emails from NASA that give me some idea of what's going on in the universe.

I've never before in awe of a speck.....

cube said...

Helena: I agree. I get irritated when people use the word awesome for something trite such as an outfit or for a sandwich, but I believe this photo is truly a case for the use of the word awesome.
