This is so incredibly cool.

 

[web01]

That was awesome.

 

[gutabo]

According to Nintendo and NASA

 

[Izayoi]

so relieved

can't believe they pulled that shit off

 

[Vilix]

Goodnight all.

 

[jersoc]

[Plasmid]

Does it take color photos?

'This is all the data we're going to get'

No more pictures tonight it sounds like

 

[Niks]

the peanuts!

 

[newjeruse]

We're a space elephant away from seeing the most important moment in the history of mankind.

 

[Mindlog]

OK everybody. Let's go get wasted and then show up ready for data in the morning.

 

[Falifax]

FROM ANOTHER FUCKING PLANET

Pretty much

 

[Jintor]

I love how one of the monitors on the wall is just showing pictures of the control rooms. Still, not like they have other images to show

 

[DrForester]

 

[Divvy]

Fuuuuuckkk yeaaaaaa Scieeeence!

 

[Deadstar]

WHAT IS THAT WORM LOOKING THING?!?!?!

 

[Macattk15]

We've had other rovers on Mars correct?

 

[Sax Russel]

That was amazing. Was totally holding my breath. And those pics. Man. MAN.

SCIENCE.

 

[perfectchaos007]

I always thought Mars was a red planet. It looks black and white to me.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Watching a live stream of NASA land a robotic science laboratory on Mars.

This is the future, and it's fucking amazing. Congrats, NASA!

 

[Plissken]

I am watching pictures from another PLANET. Fucking awesome, go NASA!

 

[everyday math]

I feel so incredible seeing these pics in real time of another planet. Just amazing.

 

[DarkLegion]

Good note to end the night. Got a physics exam in 7 hours, good night GAF.

 

[Nemesis121]

second image looks like it something out of Transformer movie...

 

[satori]

Feels good man, sharing this with my son. Something about space just amazes me....need more please send more nasa!!!Screw cutting funding in space exploration...Its sad to learn how little the space program actually receive in the scheme of things.

 

[Desperado]

My stream died before the landing

 

[qcf x2]

I know they didn't slap a cel phone camera from 2002 on to the thing, so why does the camera suck so much ass? B&W no less.

 

[Omzz]

YEAH SCIENCE

good shit

 

[2Crisis]

Somebody wake up Obama.

 

[Rokam]

I always thought Mars was a red planet. It looks black and white to me.

No one has invented color on Mars yet.

 

[Touch]

This is so inspiring. Thanks NASA!

 

[Jzero]

Peanuts really do work!

 

[Chris R]

So damn awesome.

Imagine what NASA could do with a proper budget!

 

[Calcaneus]

the thing must have been landed for a few minutes and we already had a picture. How can data travel that fast from planet to planet.
damnn

Its really crazy when you think about it.

Actually, this whole damn thing is really crazy.

 

[Chaser]

Seeing images from Mars is absolutely incredible.

I love you, NASA. I wish this happened more often.

 

[Maddocks]

everyone in that room is about to have a big ass orgy in celebration.

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

Wonder if they built in little brushes to wipe away dust from the cameras. Or maybe compressed air to knock it off.

Always wondered why they didn't do this with the previous mission. Build in some auto-cleaning system for the solar panels.

I think they didn't with Spirit and Opportunity because they didn't expect those rovers to be going around for years and years.

 

[derder]

That's a lot of pixels flying through space, man.

cancel the program

I want HD

 

[Mothman91]

'This is all the data we're going to get'

No more pictures tonight it sounds like, so the government can analyze the aliens that are there.

/crazy conspiracy friend.

 

[-COOLIO-]

anyone else see that footprint in the last photo?

 

[Jintor]

 

[Shard]

See people still care about NASA, space and Mars.

 

[Dicer]

I know they didn't slap a cel phone camera from 2002 on to the thing, so why does the camera suck so much ass? B&W no less.

Better images will come, you know how far it is and time to xmit?

 

[AnathemicOne]

We've had other rovers on Mars correct?

Go fucking science

 

[weekend_warrior]

UNITED STATED OF AWESOMENESS!

 

[IcyBlueStrawberry]

The image is kinda sort of being sent from a rover on the surface of another planet.
