Where you getting the pics? All I see is f*ckers hugging each other.
I'm worried about the dust on the lenses. The skycrane was supposed to eliminate that problem by keeping the exhaust "jets" well above ground level.
Can't wait for the video from the Descent Imager. Huygens teased us with its descent images - I hope Curiosity lets us see the first landing on another planet.
EDIT: Added Link
NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) has captured an impressive picture of the Curiosity rover’s nail-biting and extremely successful descent.
MRO is a satellite flying high above the Martian surface and beaming back amazing data about the planet. Before the descent, engineers were hoping to line up the orbiter in the right spot to capture a few quick shots of Curiosity’s landing sequence and it appears they were able to. The image shows Curiosity’s supersonic parachute — the largest ever used on an interplanetary mission — with the rover tucked beneath it.
MRO was able to pull off this feat back in 2008, when NASA’s Mars Phoenix lander descended down to the Martian surface. Higher resolution images are expected to be available soon.
Whatever happened to "Obama killed NASA"? Since all the USMB idiots shouted that nonsense, there have been private sector spaceships providing supplies to the space station and now a landing on Mars with a car size rover. Wow, you guys hate Obama. No matter what he does. Glad it's not about race. No, it's about all your "freedoms" he's taken away.
Freedoms like, uh, well, uh, like.....

Please don't pollute this thread with your spiteful nonsense.

Right wingers go on about a lack of Obama's achievements, but are quick to latch on when they prove successful.
