[SB Shock]

Have been following the Curiosity rover program and it landed on Mars today. Here is a picture of the parachute deployed.

It had a very, very complex landing sequence called the "seven minutes of terror".

It was a huge engineering success and photos are being posted already on the mission at the following link:

I am very confident that this is all made up and shot in a movie studio in L. A. just like the moon landing was.

I'll say it- fortunately the USS Satisfaction will bring it back.

And 9-11 was a government conspiracy to give us an excuse to go to war.

Not to get too far off topic, but the Curiosity mission was just a ploy to allow the Martians that crashed here in 1947 to get back home. :friendly_wink:

Man, this one time, I had this dog, and all he would do all day is run in a circle. All day non stop.

And the millions upon billions of dollars that go into these "fake" missions goes where then?

I would assume fast cars and hookers.
