Today while reading “Hindustan times next” newspaper I came through a hot news that – NASA and Microsoft launched an interactive website on this Tuesday that allows Web surfers to become Mars explorers. The “Be a Martian” website invites people to help scientists perform such research tasks as improving maps of the red planet.

Be a Martian!

The website hosts hundreds of thousands of pictures of Mars including many which have never been released to public before. It features a “Virtual town hall” where users can have questions answered by Mars experts and offer prizes to software developers who create tools that provide access to Mars images for online, classroom and Mars mission team use. The website is located at beamartian.jpl.nasa.gov.

BTW what do you think about this website? Do let us know.
