"Mars sample returns are like a box of chocolates: you never know what you're going to get."

Last week NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which is about a 10 minute drive from my home, held their annual Halloween pumpkin carving competition. Not only are the people who work at JPL some of the smartest and most gifted scientists in the world, but they also carve up some of the coolest freakin' pumpkins you've ever seen! As you'll see, these people went all out creating some really fun and inventive jack-o-lanterns. 

I've posted a bunch of images and videos from the entries in JPL's pumpkin carving competition below. You can see more here, and there are even more videos on Flickr.
