TOUCHDOWN ON MARS
by Hazed
By now you must be aware that Mars has a new inhabitant. No, I’m not talking about a new customer in Chez Diesel – this is a real life visitor to the red planet, Curiosity.
I’m going to have to update the description of the probe graveyard (south of the LP on Mars) to include this latest rover.
You should have been following the landing and what happened afterwards because all the mainstream media has been reporting on it (where they can find space in between the sports coverage). But if not, you can see all of the latest news about Curiosity, including the images it has been beaming back home, on NASA’s website.
Meanwhile, here’s a round-up of the more quirky moments of the landing, including the NASA peanuts, and a great hairdo.
And here’s a lego Curiosity.
Oh, and Curiosity – if you do happen to pop into Chez Diesel, I’ll buy you a drink!
