Mars Rover Landing Site to be Announced Friday

NASA is gearing up to launch its next Mars rover — the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) or “Curiosity.” An open question is where on Mars it should land.

That question will be answered on Friday, July 22 in a press conference at the National Air and Space Museum (NASM). The museum has a life-size model of Curiosity on display.

The press conference will be held at 10:00 am EDT and will be shown on NASA TV (http://www.nasa.gov/ntv).
