[QUOTE=Str4fe;37094729][url=http://bit.ly/PxGRwg]This[/url][/QUOTE] It's already there, but thanks.
On the Eyes of the Solar System, I'm on the year 2037 and the rover hasn't moved. What's the point of it then?
[QUOTE=Swebonny;37089825]Yeah, and not to mention that this is their first time trying this skycrane method. But I believe in them. Man this will be soawesome[/QUOTE] Well, We landed Phoenix almost the same way. Parachute then rockets.

I'm doing an all nighter to watch this. Starts 6 a.m where I live. I really hope it will be worth it.
03:25 here, starts at 05:25 GMT, should I stay up? What exactly are we going to be seeing in this broadcast when it lands?
SCIENCE FOR THE SCIENCE GOD
Landing is at 10:30 for me. Conflicts with Breaking Bad but I think this is more important.
Aww yeah NASATV HD, no laggy stream for me!

What time does the landing stream start in GMT? is it 6.20AM? [editline]6th August 2012[/editline] Ah, 5.31AM universal time.

What, that dude from black eyed peas is on nasa tv
How the fuck did he get a seat in there?
He's talking about his work with kids getting interested in STEM programs, which is a pretty respectable thing for him to do.
