Yes, not that those stuck in airports or on the autobahn would appreciate this blog too much. But our calendars are indicating March the 1st and that's already a spell of hope... Oh, maybe this term is deprecated, then the spirit of sping, there you go!

Some little robot, named Spirit, very popular on our planet, got stuck on planet Mars, for months, and this not because of snows, though there are puddles on Mars. Okay, let's not veer too much, shall we? Springtime is here! Spirit (the rover) sent us some high resolution pictures (where "us" means NASA.JPL as the "root" and anyone else from the public as "subdirs"). Take a moment to see the small green spell of spring from Mars. If you don't mind, use this as a wallpaper calendar on your desktop (given that it matches the resolutions offered).
