  • Curiosity Killed the Cat [on Mars]

    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:

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

                          I would assume fast cars and hookers.

                            And beer. Can't forget the beer. And Doritos.

                            There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.
