Fishbon Mars and the Titanic Rats vs. Rover Showdown

On Wednesday, April 19, agents of the top secret Fishbon Event Lab Mars Taskforce led by inhouse guru Steve Silverman got a briefing on the latest developments in the ongoing exploration of Mars by team NASA. Steve previewed the new GoogleMars feature as agents explored the surface, zoomed into a two mile deep Martian canyon the length of the United States and generally ran amok. After the introduction to Martian studies, Ben and Sarah led agents in an exercise in world creation with project Fishbon Mars. The surreal (realer than real) landscape contained all the usual features (craters, rocks, volcanoes and more) and the venerable Mars Rover on the hunt for Martians and evil things in general. To the relief of all, five nasty Fire Rats were quickly dispatched and the planet was declared suitable for adventure travel.
