Curiosity Lands
Another amazing video of Curiosity's descent, this time with a landing and a first look at Mars. I still can't quite grasp it all.
See the making of here.

Complete Curiosity Descent Interpolated
Incredibly beautiful and almost unbelivable. It's the wind blowing the sand or Mars dust or whatever it is that really blew me away.
"This is the Curiosity Mars Rover descent footage interpolated from ~4 frames per second to 25 frames per second. It is playing back in real time."
A 360 Degree View of Mars
I can't quite get my head around the fact that this thing is sending back photos of Mars. It's so easy to say, but when I really think about the fact that I'm seeing what the surface of Mars looks like, my head starts to hurt.
This 360 degree view was created by photographer Andrew Bodrov, by stiching together all the images from NASA. Very well done. Go fullscreen.
