We've been landing rovers on Mars since 1997. Is it still "Bold"? RT
@neiltyson Curiosity ... reminder of what it looks like "to boldly go" -
@adrive7@neiltyson with the current space tech, it sure still is! Especially if you factor in this is the first landing with a sky crane. -
@rlaracuente Skycrane is similar to the LEM landing on the moon in 1969. It just has a rover hanging from it so its more stable than the LEM - 1 more reply

@neiltyson did#nasa not factor in some windscreen wipers when they were designing#curiosity#rover? Like a wet summer's day at Skeggy... -
@frootle there are deployable dust covers on the hazard avoidance cameras; later images should be clearer! -
@marsman2020@streaky81 Thanks! Of course: camera protection. Good job I didn't design it for#nasa. Look forward to later pics!#curiosity - 1 more reply
