The Martians are getting rusty

They failed to shoot down the latest orbiter that NASA sent to visit....

The Reconnaissance Orbiter safely entered orbit around Mars after a 310 million mile journey. Controllers applauded when the orbiter emerged from behind the planet and reported a safe insertion.

All these robot probes are nice, but I for one would love to see a manned mission as soon as possible. We have been neglectful of our space program for too many years now.
