Three LEGOs were used to fasten the CD ROM disk to the rover landers. This CD ROM disk is inscribed (burned) with information of the names of individuals submitted to NASA before the missions.

Congratulations to Lego on 50 years! I remember waking my parents up on the weekends early. They'd get out a lego set for me to play with and go back to sleep.

Happy 50th Birthday Lego!
Thinking about my Lego set so many years ago puts a smile on my face. Now, after 50 years, we know Lego... well, "She's got legs."
