Last but not least: Be a Martian, help Nasa
The U.S. space agency NASA and Microsoft have jointly launched a website designed to let users become explorers on Mars.
On the website called "Be a Martian" - In the "Be a Martian" game, the user is asked to carry out research work and help draw up a map of Mars. Those who want to make themselves useful can, for example, count craters on the surface of the planet. Doug McCuistion, head of the Mars program at Nasa, is quoted on Tagesanzeiger.ch as saying that the flood of information provided by the Mars missions makes its exploration a joint, international task. Well then, let's go crater counting - after all, it's for a good cause.
