I did... or at least as best as I could with the internet cutting out all of the time. It was so awesome to see the JPL staff literally jumping for joy over the landing.

Finally! Some people outside reddit that are happy about the landing! Everyone I talked to at my work that day said "oh, I don't care about space stuff" and I was like "WHAT?! ITS SO IMPORTANT AND COOL AND AWESOME AND BLARGH!!!" so yeah... =D

I watched the live twitter stream, but couldn't get out of bed to watch the livestream. Its amazing that such a complex system performed perfectly and flawlessly to land an SUV sized thing on another planet. Can't wait for humans to go beyond LEO again...Moon landings would be cool to see.

Who knows, maybe in 40 years we'll have a colony.

Wow, really? I'm surrounded by people who can't stop talking about it. My Facebook has been clogged with Curiosity coverage (along with the fact that we had a bunch of earthquakes yesterday and the night before).

Guess I should consider myself lucky?

On a side note... that last post triggered a horrible Brittany Spears song that keeps playing at work to pop into my head... so damn you.

But yes, lucky we are, Rogue. The joys of nerd friends.

They released video a couple days ago of Curiosity's landing. Pretty neat.

I've been a little slow catching up on this one, actually...but I get all choked up every time I look at the pictures....the video...Seriously. Like...that's Mars we're looking at. What it looks like. Not a computerized documentary narrated by Sam Neil or Morgan Freeman--Which I'm totally NOT knocking. It's just easier to convey how...just amazing this is...

That just made me think of how awesome it would be if the Curiosity had a voice bank to sound like Morgan Freeman...

...which made me wish Yamaha would release a Morgan Freeman Vocaloid.
