The most hilarious part about all this is that the first successful landing on mars happened in 1971.

There two things I like being free, and being dumb. FREEDOM.
Im still confused about why this one is such a big deal. I mean its always amazing, but we already have rovers on mars don't we?
[QUOTE=tom1029;37119985]Im still confused about why this one is such a big deal. I mean its always amazing, but we already have rovers on mars don't we?[/QUOTE] Because of how hard it is to land anything on Mars.
[QUOTE=tom1029;37119985]Im still confused about why this one is such a big deal. I mean its always amazing, but we already have rovers on mars don't we?[/QUOTE] Because its a 1-ton "Laboratory Rover". Curiosity isn't just going to take pictures, its going to be testing soil and air samples and doing studies on climate changes and whatnot. It's real big: [img]http://www.csmonitor.com/var/ezflow_site/storage/images/media/content/2012/0802-nasa-mars-curiosity2/13350138-1-eng-US/0802-NASA-MARS-CURIOSITY_full_600.jpg[/img]

(wink) Not to mention the testing of the new EDL sequence that allows for the most precise non-terrestrial landings in history.

Also it has a nuclear reactor, able to theoretically last 15 years continuing experiments. Do its a testbed to see the viability and effectiveness of nuclear powered rovers in space exploration.
