    Dear @MarsCuriosity, You've been traveling for nine months. How did you pass your time? Did they let you play "Angry Birds Space"?

        @neiltyson - Is "Angry Birds Space" where you shoot the bird only for it to continue indefinitely in a line until it hits a cosmic object?

        @neiltyson I'm hoping for a Spirit/Opportunity vs. @MarsCuriosity debate that mirrors the '92 Dream Team vs. '12 men's team argument.
