    What would they do with it anyway? I'm pretty sure that driving around and taking pictures are the only things that the rover is actually capable of.

    Maybe it's because they want to tweet with Britney Spears. She tweets the Rover a lot. :lol

    Hack a robot on mars?

    NOOOOooooo! My tax money!

    *Anonymous changes video being sent to NASA into the TF2007 Mars trailer and NASA declares aliens exist on Mars and they're possibly hostile*

    .... Tax well spent.

    Pretty much. Or a very nerdy pickup line.

    "Yeah, I just drove the Mars rover. No big deal. You can try it too. It's on my computer at home. Come on over and see."

    Reminds me of an episode of Big Bang Theory.

    If they do, I hope the govt puts their full resources on finding them. Then let Seal Team 6 pay a visit.
