[QUOTE=napalm_bomb;37104361]A little late.[/QUOTE] While it would be cool, BBC don't update their site around wither this has been posted on Facepunch or not.
[QUOTE=FPSMango;37104374]Well this did happen around 6 a.m in Britain.[/QUOTE] News never sleeps, neither do reporters.
I monitored BBC's website - they did actually post an article almost immediately after touchdown. As you can see on the page, they posted at 06:33 BST (GMT+1) and, "The one-tonne vehicle, known as Curiosity, was reported to have landed in a deep crater near the planet's equator at 06:32 BST (05:32 GMT)." So the delay is on the Facepunch servers' end - the rss script update frequency in particular.
