              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.

                              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. 🖥

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