The Spirit Rover drilled into the Martian surface today. In the story I've linked to, check out the photo of the drilling location. Then check out what the article says about what the drilling locale looks like.

Yup, we retrogamers can be proud for we have an icon on another planet now. :D

It's neat how the eye is there, too :D

I can just hear Mario in my head saying "Oh-no! Pac-Man's on the moon!" LOL

It should show the rest of the image instead of just the eye because the eye could be warped into anything. Such a pizza.

Forget the pyramids and that old fashioned face. Now Mars has something of interest to us. LOL
