TIME Magazine: MARS 1997 Sojourner - 2012 Curiosity Covers

This months time magazine for August 2012 is graced by an artist image of the Martian rover, Curiosity. "MARS" fills a fourth of the cover image, taking more space then the iconic "Time" at the top. When I pulled this periodical from the stacks it triggered an old memory. I felt that I had seen this cover before. When upon my next visit to my parent's attic storage of my youth, I was able to pull out one of my "save it" boxes. Old school papers, newspaper clippings, Star Trek Voyager TV guides and magazines filled this box.

New at the Planetary Society

Today was more of a Sci day and less of a Fi day. My Planetary Society package arrived in the mail with 8 beautiful plant mini posters. (sorry pluto) Also included was my first issue of their magazine with some great articles on Ray Bradbury, light pollution and the Curiosity rover.
