So tonight or tomorrow morning depending on your timezone, NASA's CURIOSITY will be landing on Mars, or attempting to do so. It must first deal with what they call the 7 Minutes of Terror.

Hmmm! Isn't that lovely?! :marvin:

Here's some other things, like time and live stream stuff:
NASA's Youtube
NASA TV Stream
NASA UStream
Timey whimey zoney stuff

And in case you still have no clue what hell any of this garbage is, news articles:
latimes curiosity
engadget curiosity
pcworld curiosity


For east coasters like myself its around 1:30 a.m. Monday morning.

And back to lurking I go for another several months...
 
Yeah, I'm watching the live feed and its great. CNN is also showing it live right now(it's their International coverage, so it's better than normal). I just hope it lands safely.
 
This was more exciting to me than the Olympics! Been watching the live streaming on NASA's site. Congrats to everyone involved on a safe landing and job well done.

And now, the stars of 4Kids will sing the National Anthem!
Has anyone here ever taken a tour of the Cartoon Network Studios building in Burbank, CA before it closed? I really wish I could have :(
