when they say 2 min, does that include time delay as in it really lands in 2 min, or was 2 min from landing 14 minutes ago?

8/6/2012 1:23:31 AM

8/6/2012 1:23:48 AM

8/6/2012 1:24:10 AM

It looks like it is from data received. Curiosity is already on the surface.

8/6/2012 1:26:12 AM

OMG!

8/6/2012 1:26:18 AM

!!!

8/6/2012 1:28:05 AM

Parachute is out!

8/6/2012 1:29:18 AM

thrusters working

8/6/2012 1:29:55 AM

OMG WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT THING THAT JUST FLASHED ACROSS THE SCREEN.

8/6/2012 1:30:04 AM

IT WAS SUPERMAN, HE FLASHED ACROSS THE SCREEN

8/6/2012 1:31:00 AM

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8/6/2012 1:32:42 AM

Safely on the surface of Mars in one piece!

8/6/2012 1:32:55 AM

i was hoping the one chick would flash her tits in the excitement.

off to bed now, a bit disappointed

8/6/2012 1:33:19 AM

8/6/2012 1:33:26 AM

LIKE A FUCKING BOSS

8/6/2012 1:33:27 AM

That's one group of happy nerds

8/6/2012 1:33:35 AM

Yay

8/6/2012 1:33:50 AM

Touchdown.

Earth: 18
Mars: 0

8/6/2012 1:34:01 AM

IT'S A WHEELLLL!!!!

8/6/2012 1:35:31 AM

never have grown men been more excited to see a picture of a wheel

8/6/2012 1:36:11 AM

this is awesome!

8/6/2012 1:36:33 AM

64x64 pixels at that...

8/6/2012 1:36:52 AM

Yeah but it's a picture of a wheel ON ANOTHER PLANET!

8/6/2012 1:37:01 AM

OH SHIT 256x256 NOW

8/6/2012 1:37:18 AM

A wheel millions of fucking miles away

8/6/2012 1:37:39 AM

8/6/2012 1:37:56 AM

64x64 and 256x256 images?

They couldn't have used a GoPro camera in 1080p? Its fucking 2012 yo. Gopros were around in 2011... wtf NASA.

8/6/2012 1:38:27 AM

These guys are much better actors than Neil Armstrong and those other feggets.

8/6/2012 1:38:57 AM

And now the current viewers count decreases...

8/6/2012 1:39:27 AM

That's rather impressive. Thanks TWW for alerting me to this.

8/6/2012 1:39:57 AM

ha it feels like the mid-90's with these resolutions!

8/6/2012 1:40:37 AM

O'Douls party!!!1

8/6/2012 1:40:49 AM

8/6/2012 1:40:57 AM

8/6/2012 1:41:40 AM

haha

"HOLY SHIT"

8/6/2012 1:41:52 AM

lots of profanity on the live stream

8/6/2012 1:41:54 AM

They could take 1080p pictures... it would take for fucking ever to receive the images though. Transferring data from 100 million miles away takes a while.

8/6/2012 1:42:55 AM

HOLY SHIT!

They landed successfully, pretty amazing... a lot of engineering at hand with a lot things that could have gone wrong

8/6/2012 1:43:03 AM

Johnny five is alive!

8/6/2012 1:43:41 AM

there are a few 50 year old women who are going to get their hymen broken tonight, in a very awkward coitus

8/6/2012 1:43:44 AM

you might say they only had oneshot at it...

8/6/2012 1:43:49 AM

inb4 aliens

8/6/2012 1:43:52 AM

Without proper supervision from a manager, most likely from a business school, the mission would not have succeeded.

8/6/2012 1:44:29 AM

i like how that Associated Press photographer feels like he's good looking enough to hang out with everyone, probably for the first time in his life

8/6/2012 1:46:56 AM

SCIENCE!!!!



Alright, I'm going to bed. Goodnight folks.

8/6/2012 1:48:34 AM

in-fucking-credible.

8/6/2012 1:50:30 AM

Suck it North Korea

8/6/2012 1:51:11 AM
