La "curiosidad" de Clara, hacia Marte.

En 2011, la NASA enviará a Marte su nueva sonda, de nombre, Curiosity. Cuando he leído el nombre de la nueva sonda me ha parecido tremendamente apropiado. Para elegir dicho nombre la NASA ha organizado un concurso entre estudiantes, los cuales enviaron sus propuestas. Y la ganadora, ha sido, Curiosity. Lo ha propuesto Clara Ma una niña de 12 años. En la web de la NASA pueden leer el pequeño ensayo de Clara en el que propone el nombre Curiosity, no lo traduzco que no quiero desvirtuarlo lo más mínimo:





"Curiosity."

Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone's mind. It makes me get out of bed in the morning and wonder what surprises life will throw at me that day. Curiosity is such a powerful force. Without it, we wouldn't be who we are today. When I was younger, I wondered, 'Why is the sky blue?', 'Why do the stars twinkle?', 'Why am I me?', and I still do. I had so many questions, and America is the place where I want to find my answers. Curiosity is the passion that drives us through our everyday lives. We have become explorers and scientists with our need to ask questions and to wonder. Sure, there are many risks and dangers, but despite that, we still continue to wonder and dream and create and hope. We have discovered so much about the world, but still so little. We will never know everything there is to know, but with our burning curiosity, we have learned so much.
