NASA hasn't even gotten data saying the cruise stage was separated successfully yet.

 

[Jintor]

This sim is so fucking cool

 

[PantherLotus]

tell me about heartbeat tones someone!

 

[everyday math]

Nervous.

 

[vaelic]

 

[pargonta]

My god I hope this works.

Cheers all.

Here's to the human race.

 

[LobLob]

Is anyone else on a Mac? The NASA TV stream is taking up +60% of my CPU usage.

Why? I'm not even at 10 percent usage.

 

[AnathemicOne]

Shit man, 3 minutes until the 7 minutes of terror

 

[pringles]

You can feel the tension and anticipation in that control room.

Soooo nervous. Please everything go well.

 

[user8503492]

My visual drivers crashed my whole PC lol.

Had to restart EVERYTHING..so worried I'd miss it!

I'll worry tomorrow about the drivers

 

[nemesun]

i'm just watching the ustream. should i be watching anything else?

Eyes on the Solar System. Just google it.

 

[owlbeak]

Heart pounding, hands sweaty.

This EYES program really cranks up the tension!

 

[Trouble]

My simulation is 10 seconds ahead of theirs. AM I IN THE FUTURE?

 

[Dizzy-4U]

So tense.

 

[Clydefrog]

god, that tweet thing in the ustream thing is really annoying right now.

 

[Mejilan]

This is so fucking happening now!

Landing a fucking car size rover 300+ million miles away on Mars: 21,000.

I believe they did. They saw the heart beat tone signal strength decrease when the cruise stage was in the way.

 

[lednerg]

1,000 miles to go...

 

[_woLf]

This. Is. INTENSE.

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

To listen along the action.

 

[dancrane212]

This is great, well worth the sleep deprivation.

Does NASA usually do live streams or is this the first time?

 

[The_Inquisitor]

I believe they did. They saw the heart beat tone signal strength decrease when the cruise stage was in the way.

Yep. I thought that was pretty much confirmation.

 

[FO-totality]

...oh so ready.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

Oh god, I am so fucking nervous!

It's also in the middle of the night right now for half of the U.S at least.

 

[speculawyer]

Get in that (Mars) ass, rover!

[asa]

Just woke up! Tuned in and excited!

 

[Jintor]

It's happening now but we won't hear about it for a while, right? That's how information transfer works, right?

 

[DrForester]

I believe they did. They saw the heart beat tone signal strength decrease when the cruise stage was in the way.

So wait, is the Eyes on the Solar System simulation showing real time, or 7 minute delay info time?

 

[jersoc]

crazy how fast those miles are tickign down

[jakncoke]

Almost 12,000 miles per hour, jesus.

[Akira]

EN2, how's the MRO looking? Please verify the current inclination angle. Roger.

 

[ghostmind]

Things just got really tense... what is going on?

2 minutes to entry. Woooo! Common buddy, you got this.

The uStream I'm on shows 150,000+ viewers.

But your point still stands.

 

[Falifax]

The landing site is right ahead. SO INTENSE!

 

[Vilix]

I wish they kept the computer simulation screen running in a corner of the screen.

I'm showing 150k and rising.

 

[Biscuits]

To listen along the action.

Nice.

 

[Deadstar]

90 seconds to entry. Hold on to your butts!

 

[ckohler]

So wait, is the Eyes on the Solar System simulation showing real time, or 7 minute delay info time?

Eyes is a pure simulation. I don't think it has real time data.

 

[JJDinomite]

Oh man. This is it.

 

[nemesun]

Here we go folks. 7 minutes of terror is upon us.

 

[TheChits]

So freaking close.

 

[MeBecomingI]

Here we go!

 

[Neuromancer]

It's happening now but we won't hear about it for a while, right? That's how information transfer works, right?

7 minutes after landing we should know if it was successful.

 

[LobLob]

Atmosphere Entry coming up, oh god.
