OPINION....a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.
Our (e.g., Human) accomplishments in Space bring back memories as a child of awe regarding them. I remember being pulled out of class to the auditorium to watch as Man first walked on the moon. I feel we're on the same precipice in our Mars missions.
These are wonderful times. And, I'm enjoying living in them.

Throwing Ted Cruz in the Bernie Meme mix is a nice touch.

I sat and stared at that panorama from the other day. The wiring harness looks like one from Centex and it looks to be retained with zip ties.
Ponder zip ties on Mars.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
