Mars Society t-shirts
Sunday, September 21st, 2003- Mars Society Toronto: "Mars: Object is closer than it appears". This shirt and the next one are my favorites.
- "It's not what you drive. It's what drives you." The shirt has a photo of a Mars rover. I saw this shirt at the 2001 Mars Society convention at Stanford but I don't know which chapter made it.
- Mars Society San Diego: "It's not just for robots".
- Mars Society Canada: Maple leaf window into Mars.
- Mars Society Winnipeg: "Who wants to climb Olympus Mons?"; Plain with small logo.
- Mythic Creations / Mars Society Northern California: various.
I want a shirt that says "Because it's there" under a large photo of Mars.

Most of this interest is due to Mars being closer to Earth than it has been or will be for tens of thousands of years. But some of it is renewed interest in sending humans to Mars, triggered by the Columbia disaster.
