Making a Mars sample return mission more affordable

Spaceflight Now has a long article on the current plans for returning Mars samples to Earth.  As previously discussed on this blog, the plan is to fly three missions that spread out costs (but may increase cumulative risk).  There's no new news in this article for those who follow this topic regularly, but it is a nice summary of current thinking.
