New Name Chosen for Mars Science Laboratory
NASA has selected the winner of its rover-naming contest based on the quality of student essays, name preferences of the Mars Science Project leaders and a non-binding public poll. The online poll received more than 65,000 votes worldwide. The winner receives a trip to NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., where she will be invited to sign her name directly onto the rover as it is being assembled. credit: NASARelated Videos
