While "Mars Science Laboratory" is a fairly descriptive name for a rover - it is going to be on Mars to do Science with its on-board Laboratory, it is pretty dry and not that exciting. Too come up with a new name, NASA held a nationwide contest for suggestions, and now you can vote for which name you like here starting today until March 29th. This poll is non-binding, much to the chagrin of Stephen Colbert, I'm sure (though I personally kinda like the sound of "Mars Truthiness Rover" but that is just me). Enjoy!
