Speed Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Yea, I've been looking forward to the rover's arrival for quite some time. A lot rests on this landing! If the landing DOES work, the rover will eventually broadcast back to us, over the next few hours or days, video of the landing at 5 frames per second. That should be pretty cool :) Intelligent discourse can only begin with the honest admission of your own fallibility.

104th_Cobra Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I think not. There's a 7min or something delay, the reason for the automated entry and descent.

Speed Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Anyone know when it will beam back the landing video? I think it's supposed to be 5 frames/sec, starting from when the heat shield separated.

Speed Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 And to think where we could go if NASA had more than 0.5% of the federal budget..... I'm waiting eagerly for the findings. Yea, it's pretty sad, isn't it? We have the technology, or know how to develop the technology fairly quickly, to fly a large space interferometry mission within 10-20 years that could capture the spectral fingerprints of any habitable worlds out to a few dozen light years, if not more. It could even prove to a high certainty the existence of life on them, because, if you have the spectrum, then it becomes possible to detect biological activity on the surface- you look for atmospheres that are not in chemical equilibrium. For example, for like the past 1.5 billion years, Earth's spectral signature (specifically, very abundant O2) has been screaming "HABITABLE PLANET WITH A LARGE BIOSPHERE" out into interstellar space for any intelligent civilization to see. The fact that, in all that time, aliens haven't arrived to subjugate our planet makes all the Hollywood alien invasion flicks even that more ridiculous. :D Anyway, I severely digress...
