Mars Orbiter Celebrates 10th Year in Orbit

Hey Space Placers!

Can NASA build 'em or what?

Read the story and see the video about Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO), celebrating TEN YEARS in orbit around the Red Planet today.

The HiRISE camera is the same system with required modifications that Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) uses.....what a camera system!!!

Here's to many more years on orbit MRO.

I can hardly wait to observe Mars with telescopes and in the sky as it approaches Earth these next few months.
