Mornin,

So this afternoon should be the do or die moment for the billion dollar rover.

EDIT: Check this out.. Can watch the whole thing simulated!!! Avast sandbox complained but its good! Try it!. http://eyes.nasa.gov/index.html

Morning,

So just watching this in the background right now, but will go back and give it a proper detailed watch. Thought I should share with the Team, as it is relevant to our gaming activities.

Please watch, and discuss!

or

goto ABC IView and browse or search for “Foreign Correspondent” http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/news

Basically its about South Korea’s and North Korea’s contrasting digital cultures. Some of the problems that South Korean’s are experiencing with games, as well as North Korea haxxoring the South? Not sure.. Gotta watch more!

Give it a try, should only be 27mins of your time.

Morning,

So we have just about 7 days left until the landing on Mars.

The landing process – http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/667454main_MSL%20EDL%20rev-1900.jpg

Real nail biting moment with this landing.. The sky crane is something that to my knowledge, has never been done before! It’s nuts! One little thing goes wrong, we lose a billion dollar rover!

Live coverage will be available on NASA TV. http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html

Should be starting a couple of hours before planned landing.. Don’t forget there is a delay in transmission time between Mars and Earth. So when we see the landing has been successful on NASA TV, it really took place maybe 10-20 minutes earlier. That’s the nail biter! It will have all happened, we will just be waiting for it to come in
