        @neiltyson @elakdawalla Id like to see a VENUS rover. That would mean building one to take 900F temps, crushing pressures and acid clouds.

        @neiltyson @elakdawalla Just how big will the rover be this time? It's already the size of a car! Are we sending an 18 wheeler next time? :)

        @neiltyson why are we continually heading to Mars? Why not an icy satellite? Europa, Enceladus, Triton? Much more interesting.

        @neiltyson @elakdawalla So that was my first time watching. Seems pretty interesting, Although I'm enthusiastic for a sample return mission.

        @Digitalneo1 @neiltyson @elakdawalla Sorry, I mean I'm NOT enthusiastic. Fuel cost to send more fuel will be a lot. Is it just 'one' sample?

        @Digitalneo1 No, it would be a lot of samples - rocks, soil, selected from different places, in separate containers in one capsule.
