curiosity lands on mars soon!

dont forget that in a few hours, the newest addition to our roving robot expedition fleet on mars, curiosity, will go for a gold landing on the red planet!

you can WATCH THE LANDING LIVE at any of these resources.  

the first signals from curiosity will be received by the parkes radio dish in australia - another historic moment for "the dish!" 

this whole thing is amazing.

Hi,

wasn't it fun to see the excitement of the engineers during the critical phases and their relief and joy after the landing ;).
