We have tried to give the highest priority to the research that we need to get to the moon and Mars and beyond. Is the science scaled back? You bet it is. But is it no science at all? No, we're still trying to utilize this station all we can up there.

Nobody originally believed that a two-foot-long rover could actually move around on Mars at all, much less accomplish science,.. (But) there it was -- it did it.

An ounce of this would power our five biggest cities for five years. There are 220 pounds of it per acre on the moon. This is why we want to go to the moon, Mars and beyond. The Chinese intend to mine it also.

What we're trying to do is immerse them in investigation very much like the lander is going to do. There's a lot of good analogies in what is happening in the frost tunnel and what we expect on Mars.

Spirit has climbed to the hilltop and looked over the other side, but NASA did not do this just to say we can do it. The Mars rovers are addressing fundamental questions about Martian history and planetary environments.

Spirit and Opportunity are approaching targets that a year ago seemed well out of reach. Their successes strengthen NASA's commitment to a vision with the ambitious targets of returning samples from Mars and sending human explorers to Mars.

It's going to be difficult to get it into orbit. Mars is hard, Mars can be unpredictable, but we've got a good team here.

This mission will greatly expand our scientific understanding of Mars, pave the way for our next robotic missions later in this decade and help us prepare for sending humans to Mars.

Mars doesn't treat you very well, for the most part. So this is a very challenging thing to do.

With the abundance of stellar scientists and research and clinical activities in and around the MaRS Discovery District and the fact that our Chief Scientific Officer and Vice President, Dr. Mansoor Mohammed, is a Canadian citizen, it was an easy and obvious choice for our expansion into the Canadian arena. Moving forward we anticipate establishing strong relationships with Canadian customers, partners and the government.

Biology has taught us that if you have water and energy and some organic compounds you can produce life even in the most extreme environments. Basically, life can get a foothold almost anywhere. This forebodes well for the possibility that life existed on Mars sometime in the past or even perhaps today.

Mars continues to surprise us at every turn. We expect Odyssey to remove some of the uncertainties and help us plan where we must go with future missions.

Life on Earth was not a cosmic fluke but part of a broad imperative. Mars is a lot like Earth. And billions of years ago it had some kind of atmosphere and huge quantities of flowing water.

This dramatic confirmation of standing water in Mars' history builds on a progression of discoveries about that most earthlike of alien planets. This result gives us impetus to expand our ambitious program of exploring Mars to learn whether microbes have ever lived there and, ultimately, whether we can.

Water is, to the best of our knowledge, the key building block of life. If we can find it on Mars, it would help us glue together the geologic history of Mars and help us find out if there ever was life on Mars.

Not marble nor the gilded monumentsOf princes, shall outlive this powerful rhyme, But you shall shine more bright in these contentsThan unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time. When wasteful war shall statues overturnAnd broils roots out the work of masonry, Nor mars his sword nor war's quick fire shall burnThe living record of your memory.'Gainst death and all-oblivious enmityShall you pace forth; your praise shall still find roomEven in the eyes of all posterityThat wear this world out to the ending doom. So, till judgement that yourself arise, You in this, and dwell in lovers eyes.

Mars tugs at the human imagination like no other planet. With a force mightier than gravity, it attracts the eye to the shimmering red presence in the clear night sky..

The symbolism seemed so apt. The same technology that can propel apocalyptic weapons from continent to continent would enable the first human voyage to another planet. It was a choice of fitting mythic power: to embrace the planet named after, rather than the madness ascribed to, the god of war.
