LESA NAGO
NASA and LEGO are teaming up for a contest. It appears we’ll be sending two new robotic “Rovers”, as the jargon goes, to the planet from where all those Grey’s with an ass-fetish come from… erm. Mars. So the contest goes as such: Entrants must be 5-18 years old, and must write a 50-500 word essay (in crayon for the younger ones?) explaining why their name should be used. This is a great idea, except I believe it will fail to really capture the true essence of fun that is usually associated with involving kids. Due to PR restraints, I highly doubt we’ll see names like “Booger The Mars Rover” or “Red-Rover-Red-Rover-Red-Planet-Rover”
