However it is a strange kind of planet and those objects people say were photographed makes one wonder. I hope they can get a rover probe close to those objects someday so we can get a better look. It would be worth the expense in my opinion.
The Phoenix Mars Lander is due to set down in the Martian "arctic" on May 25th. Although not in this exact region it will be within the zone where it can measure current water content, permafrost, etc. Even though it is static and not a rover it should yield some very exciting science.
