Unless you happen to be a roving robot with serious NASA connections, you
probably won't be visiting Mars anytime soon. While no doubt a bummer to
aspiring astronauts, there are ways to look for little green men without leaving
the Earth's atmosphere. Journey to
Mars, a kid-friendly
site from San Francisco's Exploratorium, puts visitors close enough to the red
planet that they'll likely accept their Earth-bound fate with good cheer.
Visitors can start their adventure with an informative and fun look at how the
"robotic
scientists" do their
job -- it's not easy being an explorer, chemist, geologist, meteorologist,
and photographer. Of course, the
photos and
video section is
required viewing. Spot any signs of
life?
