Science: Space: Rover
Martian Surface Rock Concert   (+2)  [vote for, against]
The cheapest way to christen Mars as a human place.

Under the guise of conducting audio experiments with the Martian atmosphere, the rover would roam about with microphones while the lander played various things on it's loudspeakers.

Music from various pop artists, speeches, messages from school children would all be played through these speakers, picked up by the microphones on the rover and broadcast back to Earth.

Sound experiments have been proposed, but I'm not finding anything about putting on a Martian rock concert. You could even have it live with the artist playing in a studio, broadcasting the music and video to Mars, having the speakers play the music, the mics pic it up and then send the whole thing back to earth.

There must be a theremin, operated by the robot cutting head. Then it would be actually original music.
