But I am glad NASA, for once, practiced good judgement and nixed the idea to name it after a celebrity, else the next over priced, under impressive rover might be named Ol' Dirty Bastard!

Because of NASA, we now have GPS, cell phones, electric cars that actually work, spy satellites for defense, numerous medical advances that save countless lives, MILLIONS of jobs born out of these technologies......NASA is worth every penny for what it helps bring us in terms of jobs, tax revenue, and technological advancement. As a matter of fact, it is estimated that the cumulative economic impact of NASA projects is $7 for every $1 spent.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 31st 2009 10:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sixth-Grader Names Next Mars Rover ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/28/sixth-grader-names-next-mars-rover/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/28/sixth-grader-names-next-mars-rover/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well I am curious if this thing will ever get off of the ground.
