Love this guy Charles Bolden.
As a matter of fact, I want to have a glass of wine him one day and chit chat about Mars.

Bolden's words uttered to the Curiosity Rover on the surface of Mars, which in turn sent them back to NASA's Deep Space Network on Earth.
Cool stuff.
In a nut shell boys and girls, the successful transmission means Bolden's space-faring comments are the first instance of a recorded human voice traveling from Earth to another planet and back again, according to NASA.
Now that is impressive, Young Jedi.
