In the thousands of images we ve received from Curiosity, we see ones with bright spots nearly every week, said Justin Maki of NASA s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., leader of the team that built and operates the Navigation Camera.

But Irsquo;d noticed a new kind of note lately, one that echoed comments Irsquo;d received from strangers at readings or even well-meaning acquaintances whorsquo;d read my book. The email from the German woman summed it up: Really why no gloss
