Mars Mission in Jeopardy

Mars Mission in Jeopardy
Quote:The project, known as Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution Mission (MAVEN), aims to put a spacecraft in orbit around the Red Planet to study how it lost much of its atmosphere and became a desolate world.

MAVEN is currently scheduled to take off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on November 18 and has a 20-day launch window.

If it misses that opportunity, the team will have to wait more than two years for their next chance to launch, according to Jakosky, a planetary scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder.

Maybe they should be sent there without space suits so they can perform a suitably thorough hands on search for tax credits and tax shelters on mars.
