Absolutely Amazing!
There's a lot to be said for intensity. I wish that we had more like him, especially in the NASA program design and management offices.

Fantastic! There is no way anyone who views these can deny the existence of water somewhere on the planet. I still hope someday we will be able to get equally good photos from the other seven planets in our system but until then, I look forward to the day our explorers are setting foot on Mars!

I'm young, and interested in astronomy. When I read this, it makes me more interested. I think, better we share this with others so our next generation will love the nature

I am an elementary art teacher. This year we are going space crazy. With Mars being closest to the Earth this summer than it will be for decades, I would love to know more about your work. My son is a gifted photographer who loves to go out in search of the perfect photo op, but I think Mars is the prize.
The galaxy like an artist's palette on a super sized scale.
Sincerely, Jan Alexander
