the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter has successfully entered into an insertion orbit around Mars. considering the difficulties of getting to Mars and the history of failures there, this has to be another great achievement for JPL. the more of these missions that succeed for JPL, the more funding they should receive for doing future projects. unfortunately, there's only two more projects in the works for Mars and those won't occur until 2007 and 2009 respectively.
