Curiosity Has Landed!

by

If I'm hearing the Livestream chatter right, sounds like it landed within 5 minutes of the expected time, and right on target.

We fired that sucker about 250 million miles, gave it a landing sequence that even Michael Bay would find hard to believe, and she's down safe.

Dare Mighty Things indeed.

First couple of dinky B&W photos (probably because it hasn't fully opened up and activated yet) can be found on, believe it or not, the rover's Twitter feed.
