What’s neat is that you can track the heat shield almost until it hits the surface. You can track it until :46 into the film. The Curiosity jerks around and yaws right and you lose sight of it. Still, that was great work for four days of effort. The next lander should carry a video camera that records the landing in real time for later uplinking to Earth. Better yet, carry two cameras so there would be two angles of the landing. Might be a nice engineering tool to boot.
Little green men? Okay, okay...I know when I've gone too far.
