| Anyone following the Perseverance (Rover) Mars landing -- less than 40 minutes to go
Seems like this rover will soon be arrived at destination. I am "watching" live feeds (virtual, of course) ... my camera just can't handle the distance!  and NASA/JPL Eyes | |

Yeah! Just watched the News with the JPL team very happy that the landing was a success. A couple of "proofing" images sent from Reddy as well. Amazing feat of engineering once again. What's funny is that while the News person was having a video chat with an astrophysicist via Zoom .... the communication went dead !!!  Imagine that: we receive great signals from far Mars but we can't seem to have a reliable signal right here on Earth! | |

That was an impressive display of technology. But I'm waitin' to see people on the moon again . . . having been there long enough to have to use a lunar outhouse . . . after a festive burritos an' beans celebration. Now that'll be truly superior, all-things-considered, zero-defect engineering at its very best !  | |

What was Gay's full name? Back on Topic, I tried to watch the landing but when the timer hit zero nothing happened? Somebody said something about 'an hour and a half' so I gave up. | |
