Anyone keeping up with this? http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/msl/index.html Great achievement, I think. Makes fixing your van look positively easy.
It is a wonderful thing , i kinda avoid nasa technology in fear of being totally absorbed into it , it is so intriguing
Got to be honest - if I'd spent over a billion quid on a Rover - I'd blast it away with a rocket too!
I have to step back every time I start to think of space, the universe, parallel universes, ever expanding galaxies and timeliness. It is so fantastic. The thought of life on other planets is one of the most exciting things EVER and since I was 5 I have always said I hope it is proven in my life time ....
Some guy was on the box at lunchtime saying there could be a man on Mars in 50yrs time...bit of a bummer I shall miss it. )
i think its a great thing, im a big fan of mars, boost bars even more tho and the thing is connected to twitter and has posted photos already sad but i love it "@marscuriosity"
... have you seen the NASA animation of how the thing landed? It's amazing! Amazing it worked as well; so complicated.
