          Maybe they wouldn’t want us to see an accident?

              Tough room today. 😆

              I'm looking forward to the next Mars explorer that will fly over the surface. Pretty cool idea.

                    Shouldn't matter. The video feed clearly stated it was a "low res down-link video" wtf?

                      It was still pretty sweet to see it splash down even in low res. lol

                        The question is did you watch the last splashdown?

                        1975?

                          Take the mirrors out of your workspace, Mark.

                                The announcer keeps referring to Bob and Doug

                                I keep thinking of this

                                  Yeah cool to see indeed. I was also disappointed with the video resolution and lack of alternate angles.

                                      Ha! I was wondering if all those boats are part of the operation. Guess not!

                                        Seems kind of dangerous to have all those other boats there. I would think that they would have a "no trespassing" zone for boats that are not associated with the mission.
