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?

[mark]

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

[Loki]

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.

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

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!

[taiwan_girl]

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.
