              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?

                            The question is did you watch the last splashdown?

                            1975?

                              Take the mirrors out of your workspace, Mark.

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