Nasa's Maven spacecraft arrives in Mars orbit after 442m-mile journey - Scientists hope Maven will find clues to the planet’s early history, including the possibility of harbouring life.

Saw it on the news.

They hope to learn why and where the water and CO2 went.

I think one of the rovers is still running years longer than expected.

Also they talk about this is all aboput learning about the place so we can eventually go there and establish a colony. man that would be a tough life.
