1277174 2012-05-25 12:08:00 I wonder what them Martians will make of the tumble weed that them Earthlings are setting loose on Mars. :( Bobh (5192)
1277175 2012-05-25 12:26:00 That's cool, idk how it survives with that dust on the solar panels/

Re it's lifespan, the eifiel tower was only supposed to last a matter of months (for the world fair) amazingly (to the people of paris) it stayed up for several years, strengthening and repairs were added for a further 15 year lifespan... today she's still standing
