Yup, that’s an awesome program.
I replayed the landing of the Curiosity rover a few weeks ago.

They are taking your kids there for grades 3 - 6. The Martian schools are not integrated enough

For Roku owners, the NASA App is carrying the feed. Looks like a good solid 1080p to me. Some of the audio is a bit below par. But still OK.
Worth watching.

Money is gone. China wins. and by the way — who cares about that godless rock. We have been there and done that. We need money now to survive as a nation. Mars , what a knee slapping belly laugh. Think about the futility.

Think about the futility.

I completely agree.
America needs to reindustrialize.
Now.
To: iowacornman
We are totally broke spending our great grand childrens money... Yep. When a country is broke as we are, it should only be doing essential research. Sending probes to Mars is no way essential research.
It's not foolish, like some other federal projects are. But neither is it essential.

are they inverting the colors to make it look more like earth or maybe it is earth? Mars is a read plant not a blue one.
