I for one would have thought the flights of Spirit/Opportunity Pathfinder, and NEAR would would have made the mix, along with a few others not mentioned. When you think of the "90 day wonders" Spirit and Opportunity and what they accomplished and continue to accomplish and how they continue on despite their age, and the fact that we landed on an Asteroid with NEAR, I think somebody had best do their homework.
