Very neat, but there are only a few places on Mars I recognize well enough to find. It would be good to have a list of points of interest and a way to go to them.

There's also a Twitter symbol at one point on the globe; not sure why?

Nice idea! We'll add a feature layer with points of interest.

Clicking the Twitter symbol should show you somebody's tweet on that position. Works in Chrome, and we'll add support for Firefox (soon) which currently blocks it

It would be good to add a way to toggle that layer too.

Yea, that should be rather straight forward with the Esri API. We should be able to find some time to add it by next week.
