Mars Landing

[The Fear]

Had been mentioned in the science thread:

https://forums.vitalfootball.co.uk/threads/the-science-and-technology-thread.2734/page-18

But historic event like this, for those that don't go into that thread, got to be worthy of its own thread

Live now.

Just realised it was on when I put the news on.

Fantastic!

Imagine if John Mcginn bombs by the craft and lands on Mars first.

It blows my mind watching stuff like this.

They have a helicopter they are going to fly over the surface. I want to have a go!!!!!!

 

[Pride of Lions]

Life On Mars......... brilliant!

Found it quite funny with the 11 minute delay.

They are crapping it at something going wrong, but it's already landed safely ages ago lol

 

[sirdennis]

It's all fake.

The flag is blowing in the breeze.

Pretty spectacular stuff. I managed to catch the landing in the middle of the night last night.

Are they streaming a video feed from the rover or are they keeping that to themselves in case they find the cities?

 

[HeathfieldRoad1874]

LOL, it takes a while for the high res video to be transferred.

They have just said they had cameras running as it went through the atmosphere, as well as microphones. There will be a full media experience coming soon.

What great stuff.

I don't know what I expected, but it looks like it's on earth. I suppose it would do, wouldn't it!!!!

Thats brilliant.

 

[Villan57]

Brilliant pictures, I don't think those Martians are real though

 

[colavfc]

So we have aliens on Mars. Er, humans on Mars.
Kind of.
Either way. Mars has a UFO on their planet.

So if dumbass humans can manage it, surely more intelligent life could.

That's bollocks apparently.

It's the site on earth where the rover was tested.

 

[DeanoVilla]

Also it's the curiosity rover.

Made at Lode Lane.
