Nuclear powered, hopefully years to come.


Well, NASA built it to last 2 years. So expect it to stop around a decade from now after another NASA project outlives itself four times over. When they build anything they mean it to last.

It's a bigger deal for US though because NASA needed a success.


True. Hopefully this will bump up their budget.

yup, the only reason we landed this rover was so it could take a couple of blurry pics within 30 secs of landing. After that we cut off all communications.

Congrats!!






it would still be totally worth it. I'd rather pay for some exploration than for a tank that may or may not accidentally destroy someone's home in the middle east.

What about for education and healthcare? I am excited as anyone in the Command room about this, but I feel there is not much significant knowledge we can gain with this doing this now. Perhaps a decade or so after when technology is more advanced then it would be more justifiable.

But I'm a science junkie, so anything for science!

Not enough room in the budget.

Oh god on one stream they were talking hypothetical of a negative landing and the concensus was the budget would likely be reabsorbed into debt payment rather than redirected into NSF. This was perfect.

I think the data transfer rate is the limiting factor as limited time exists with the Rover in transmission range today. After this, it's just a matter of time and these tools will indeed be utilized.

Sure, be happy for it, but 15 minutes of hugging and screaming and shit is fucking weird, shouldn't they have mad amounts of data to go throught, you know, do science?


Working on something for 8 years, 12 hours a day... you get pretty attached. Babies only take 9 months to make and look how nuts people go over those?

Cut the engineers some slack.

This was the part where we find out whether or not we threw 2 billion dollars down the drain.

It is the difference between another substantial mission being able to go forward, aka years of their careers, vs. a $2.5 bn pile of wreckage and a terrible bit of PR likely to be a nail in the coffin for their ability to get any reasonable amount of money in the next budget cycle or two. It is worth them being very excited about it.

Does the Curiosity have color video recording possibility, or does dust covers and stuff prevent that?
