Let's first wait to see that rover kicking up some dust, and the lander surviving its first Martian cold snap.

Mars has many, many tricks up its sleeves when it comes to compromising missions.

Admittedly I am encouraged by the recent lack of failures. But there is still a long way to go before getting data back from Mars becomes routine.
