Yep...got my fat ass planted in front of the TV watching. So far, boring as fuck...but laughing at some of the idiots they're putting on as commentators.

I'm waiting for Elon Musk to walk over to the rover and wave hello, although he's probably under strict orders not to show off the teleporter to the humans yet

Will he drive the Tesla over and step out?

Cool!

Wonder when they're going to to test out the drone?

Knowing NASA, they'll probably be spending the next two weeks going through pre-flight checklists before they take it for a spin.

Take that, China and UAE!

The US needs to claim 90% of Mars as its own (since ancient time) as commie china is doing with South china Sea, an international body of water.

Take that, China and UAE!

Yeah, that's gonna keep us a world power.

[DigDog]

you guys know that if the Mars colonization is successful, they will declare independence, right?

then we'll have the interplanetary wars we've always dreamed about!

 

[DigDog]

except that this time *we* are Great Britain and they are America.


.. probably an out-of-place observation, but how exactly would you attack a planet?
If you use standard rocket engines, and rely on approach vectors and gravity to land, you could be hit from thousands of miles away, all it takes is one big cannon. Or one missile. Or a laser.

 

[BoomerD]

Yeah, that's gonna keep us an interplanetary power.

The Treaty of Olympus granted autonomy.
