We never really sent a probe to Mars. It's all taking place on a soundless stage in Huston for the express purpose of making the Russians jealous.

Martians have had smartphones since the early 1970s.

One of my "want to"s is to go up into the 70-80K ft range so you can see the curvature of the planet. I've been to 50K and that's cool, but still no curve.

Really? Wow ... I think the camera has a fisheye lens on it so that kind of distorts the horizon a bit. 70K is just above Concorde and SST and the sky does look that deep blue. So at 100 it's probably almost black.
