I could have thrown in my Olympus D-490 2.1 mega pixel camera (circa 2000) for free. Better than nothing.

just watching the Jep Propulsion Laboratory people laughing and acting like they were taking selfies for Facebook during the descent portion. Also a hipster wearing a derby hat as a technician at the JPL? WTH?
