NASA Administrator Sean O'Keefe joins NASA scientists, mission managers and a Mars rover today to help Disney's Epcot, at the Walt Disney World Resort, celebrate the success of the Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit and Opportunity. The Administrator's now famous quote, "We're back. . . and we're on Mars" is being added to a permanent collection of space-related quotations on the façade of Disney's latest attraction, "Mission: SPACE." The popular attraction launches visitors on a simulated space adventure to the Red Planet. "Mission: SPACE" combines NASA-based technology and imagery with the creative minds of Walt Disney Imagineering to deliver a one-of-a-kind exploration experience.
