Mice 4 Mars!

Space.com is carrying this report on a new space probe meant to duplicate the low-gravity conditions on mars to see what long term affects said low gravity may have on mammals. They're wanting to fling about a dozen or so mice in orbit and spin their home up to a high enough speed to duplicate the gravity, leave 'em up there for awhile, then bring 'em home and see what happened.
