There is a "wet chemistry" module on board that will look for chemical signatures of life, but the main focus is analyzing whether the climate in the past was suitable for life.

I want to know who the hottie with the black hair was sitting in the EDS Operations Seat in Mission Control.

Gorgeous AND a rocket scientist?

It would be amazing if a Mars orbiter has captured the entry/landing.

I actually did analysis on the flight software for this lander when I was with NASA. I was really excited to hear it touched down without a hitch last night even if I missed the video in the hospital.

The image from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter marks the first time ever one spacecraft has photographed another one in the act of landing on Mars.

Yeah I worked for Northrop Grumman on a NASA contract to do IV&V on it. It was pretty sweet.
