Mars-Rover the Webstronaut!

Mars-Rover Speaks

Mars-RoverHi, I’m Mars-Rover, I was named after Cornell University’s Department of Astronomy and their involvement in the mission to Mars. I am a “webstronaut.” You’ll spot me all over as you travel through the library’s space-themed children’s site. Join me as I listen to The Library Boogie or chat with me on my own my blog. I didn’t just apply for this position, I was voted in by the public. It was a tough race between me and 4 other very promising animals, but after 25 days and 66 votes, the results proved the majority of you are dog lovers.

I am excited about this position and I promise to do a Doggone-good job.

What the other candidates had to say (or mooed, meowed, squeaked, whatever the case).

 

 

Cosmos

Cosmos the Cat, in great dismay over losing to a dog, had no comet.

 

Milk-y Way

Milky-Way the cow was in udder disbelief; she was sure she was a moo-in.

 

Meteor

Nobody heard even a peep from Meteor the Mouse.

 

Galaxia

Galaxia the Giraffe was seen with a very long face (and neck).
