All the looping and dipping around Mars will pay off very soon (or rather it has) as the MRO finished the aerobreaking exercises on 8/30/2006. it'll be interesting to see what science the MRO will be producing in the upcoming months. One element it will have is providing a communications channel for future Mars missions. It's being called an interstellar (?) internet relay of sorts. Right now though, the primary mission won't begin until this November due to the positioning of the Earth and the Sun. So got a little more to wait before some science rolls in. Good job guys!
