"Mission Update"

   "Mission Update" by Steve Squyres was written to inform the world about life on mars. Steve was the speaker that introduced his piece of literature in a blog form. He expresses his emotion through the blog and writes out of excitement from being on a new world. The first box which was shown as a blog introduced the Victoria Crater which was the opportunity ship. The whole point of his blog was to gain the attention and the interest of the audience.

   This literature piece was different from the others we have read this week, and caught my attention since it was more recent. It took place in 2006 which was already when computers were excessively used. One reason why I enjoyed it was because it was on my favorite planet. It is also interesting to know that our country has a mars rover that we can operate from here. I would not mind traveling there one day.
