Some brilliant colour pics of Mars' features at the link below.

While most people think of Mars as a boring dusty desert, the topography of Mars is actually quite varied and spectacular. By examining these images NASA planners will now be able to better determine future landing sites for the next batch of robotic missions. Previously scientists had to depend on lower resolution and fuzzy black and white images to pick interesting targets on our neighbor planet. With these new photos not only will interesting features become more readily apparent but they also make for some spectacular images.

Wow..that's awesome....I've always been fascinated with space, and going to Mars is such a sweet ideal. I think they'll do it in our lifetime.
