I wonder of Odyssey was able to video the landing and how long before the data is returned. That would be icing on the cake.

Yes I read somewhere they had a camera set up to do that.

I don't know, but images are pouring in, just their site can't keep up - http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/raw/

This was so complex and so many things could have gone wrong. Wow.

MER-B (Opportunity) may have also gotten a shot at taking some pix. From what this cook understands..... Curiosity came in over MER-B when it was in dark or early sunrise twilight.

I have heard that there was a plan to watch from there, too.

We've got quite a few assets on or around Mars.

We're also kicking ass on the Mars curse for spacecraft.

It's not luck. It's the opposable thumb and the big brains. Humans rock.
