Martian microbe message

Having heard of the successful launch of the Earthling mission, Mars Science Lab*, Marty the Martian** waits patiently on the red planet for Curiosity*** to discover him.

*MSL- http://marsprogram.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/
** Marty the Martian is a relative of the Giant Plush Microbes (TM) predicted microbe found on the ALH 84001 meteorite.
*** Curiosity- the rover on MSL that will gently land on Mars, includes 10 instruments and is much larger than Spirit or Opportunity, the twin rovers currently on Mars. http://www.universetoday.com/91317/curiosity-mars-rover-launch-gallery-photos-and-videos/
