This is amazing, if it works as planned it will be fantastic to get real aerial pictures of Mars rather than computer generated ones:

Incredible.

Honestly things happening that we'd not have expected in our lifetimes.

Look forward to seeing pictures of the lost rovers, mysteriously dismantled... Then the clouds of green gas will appear and the media head to Horsell Common

Landing tonight. Does anyone know where we can watch it other than Nasa's website? I heard it was going to be on the Beeb but I can't find it.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

The physics of it is very interesting as well.

Because Mars has a much thinner atmosphere it's harder to achieve lift using rotating blades. To overcome this they are using two sets of rotors that rotate in opposite directions and that are twice as fast as standard helicopter blades.
