If you guys haven't seen the videos from the rover landing on Mars, check this out. It will somewhat restore your faith that humans can be really smart and good. I've watched it like 10 times. Never fails to amaze.

Re: Mars
Totally amazing, but of course it sucks because NASA is like a government agency right?
(Seriously though, cool stuff. I'd love to see the mini-copter in flight.)

Re: Mars
kgb secretly loves when people rag on the government, he brings it up every chance he gets.
It is cool though. Would only be cooler if SpaceX landed their own rover and we had a Battle Bots fight to the death. But still, this is an acceptable level of coolness.

You there, Ephialtes. May you live forever.

LOL.
The one time I intended to write your actual screen name, I still wrote kgb. The fail is real.
