Exploratorium: Journey to Mars
Unless screenshotyou happen to be a roving robot with serious NASA connections, you probably won't be visiting Mars anytime soon. While no doubt a bummer to aspiring astronauts, there are ways to look for little green men without leaving the Earth's atmosphere. Journey to Mars, a kid-friendly site from San Francisco's Exploratorium, puts visitors close enough to the red planet that they'll likely accept their Earth-bound fate with good cheer. Visitors can start their adventure with an informative and fun look at how the "robotic scientists" do their job -- it's not easy being an explorer, chemist, geologist, meteorologist, and photographer. Of course, the photos and video section is required viewing. Spot any signs of life? For those still looking for more, these links should do the trick. (in Mars)
