Hey man. Been a while since I said hi. Thanks for takin the time to upload these videos to teach people the joy of our solar system. I love astronomy. Love your moon and planet vids. Ive been alot on stars lately and they really interest me. Do you think you could do some videos of stars in our galaxy too? That be great. My favorite is the bluegiant Rigel. Sirius, Betelgeuse, and Canopus are awesome too.

[AggManUK]

Great to see you back! :O) When winter comes, i am planning on doing some more videos. The Stars are on my to do list. So watch this space! (No pun intented) :O)

Wow, great job AggManUK! Truly inspirational and well edited for these 2 video clips. Wonderful music to accompany the short texts. Not to mention it made me re-discover the music of Mike Oldfield. Listening to his '83 hit single Moonlight Shadow right now! :-)

[AggManUK]

Your very kind! Thank you very much for watching and the great comment! Mike Oldfields music is so inspiring to me. Moonlight Shadow is a classic too! All the best! :O)

You are Great Agg!

But doesn't it just frustrate you that all this marvelous history is being made with virtually no media news cover? Thank you AggMan, you're doing for us what the BBC is sadly failing to do.

It was truly a beautiful video!!! Is just amazing the capabilities of the humans and how far ahead we are heading in space travel and exploration. I am sure they will welcome the Spirit and Opportunity more than any other heroes and all the people that were part of this long mission and dedication to our world. God Bless the Spirit and Opportunity!!

Isn't God Awesome ,by the whats the title of the music? Thanks

I had to these again! SIMPLY AMAZING! Mars is such a BEAUTIFUL WORLD! The thought of walking on its surface, is MIND-BLOWING! Spirit & Opportunity have been through some ROUGH ADVENTURES! It's AMAZING, how just a small amount of Plutonium-238, and other isotopes of Tellurium/Lead in the RTG's & RTU's, can keep them alive! Also, the tomography & mapping is SO ACCURATE! We should use these isotopes for space exploration, NOT destruction of our own planet, Earth. YOU ROCK AggManUK! THANKS A LOT! =D

[KarbineKyle]

EXTRAORDINARY! AWESOME JOB! These are THE BEST uploads on Astronomy I've seen so far, & I just want to say to AggManUK: "THANK YOU SO MUCH!" BEAUTIFUL, EDUCATIONAL, & INSPIRING! =D I wish MORE people were into THIS, unlike stupid reality shows! Small amounts of Pu-238 (T½ = ~87.7 years) are used for the RTG's (Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators OR Units). Te/Pb RTG's & RTU's are used for the Power & Operating Temperature too.

What a great demonstration of excellent video and spectacular production. The music along with dictation provide a great show and very informative understanding of the objectives and difficulties of life time adventure.

[XBathShebaX]

This is very well done! I love the music and a beautifully told story about two rovers on mars. Thank you for much enjoyment!

[Wesley296]

They really should have put little fans on the top to blow off wind!

AggManUK! (From the US) Once again, nice videos and you're one of my favorite video makers. Please keep up the good work, and let's hope that spirit and opportunity makes it through until we arrive there. :(

[Angelo133811]

Oh man! I really hope that one day (hopefully soon) that man will arrive on the red planet and bring spirit and opportunity home. They've done so much work and deserve to come home and a heroes welcome, and I really feel sad that they have to remain on the red planet because as they survive through out the years, there starting to struggle. The scientists should have built a return home feature or something on them. I'm crying and in tears at the moment. :( Hang in there spirit and opportunity!!
