      Tough room today. 😆

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

          How far away is that camera?

            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?

                  Kind of boring watching a bunch of geeks sitting behind computer monitors.

                  Take the mirrors out of your workspace, Mark.

                  If you don't take it, it can only good happen.

                      Hey, I don't video myself and live stream it for all the world to see. I know what boring looks like. 🖥

                        The announcer keeps referring to Bob and Doug

                          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.
