    Well, this doesn't happen everyday. I figured folks would be interested.

    There are several to choose from, but I'm guessing the Youtube NASA feed will be the most reliable.

      Thanks. This landing is a momentous event.  think the probe will take a look at stuff under the soil surface? and give us a ton of information. Mind bending. Just think, we might get to see a Martian at last.

    For obvious reasons, a lot of people avoid the Topics Forum altogether. Hopefully, HP won't kick this thread over there until after the event.

    Meanwhile, I've selected https://www.youtube.com/NASAJPL/live . It even lets people set a reminder.

    Here's a good backup or possibly even a second good first choice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjNeX55MSww They are live now with all sorts of info.

    I'm actually a little nervous. It's not like someone can walk up and set the thing back upright if the landing goes wrong.

      Update. Then again, FatFreddysCat says someone might come along and help us out. big_smile

    https://www.youtube.com/NASAJPL/live has gone live. Blurriness issue at first, but cleared up.

      Update. The other link I provided looks like it is only good for backup purposes.

    For those not yet watching, NASA just warned us this is definitely not a sure thing.

    Less than 20 minutes.

    I turned off Youtube chat to help avoid bandwidth problems.

    Am so glad the landing was perfect. They've said still a long way to go on all the subsequent items. Looking forward to the images.

    No welcoming committee as usual, I always knew Martians were slackers.

    The husband of a fellow Hubber did this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sn-yESw … e=youtu.be And yep, it's relevant to the thread. smile

    Good morning miss paradigmsearch. Thank you for the information. It is great that the scientists are trying to find new discoveries in space. My blessing for all the team and everyone who make it possible to find new information to used later, so we can apply it in our daily routines. I wish you a wonderful day.

    Freddyscat was right. Mars NASA Control just released this enhanced image of the rover landing.

      For those still interested.

      "NASA's Mars InSight lander is safely on the Red Planet. What happens now?": https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/na … ncna940626 I can't wait until they discover the "Kilroy Was Here" sign I put there.

    Hi wow soo interesting. I just watched the documentary on Netflix about people deciding whether or not the moon landing was real or fake. I just can't decide ahhhh it's really confusing me lol. Hope this can prove it one way or another.
    I will keep track of this thank you!!! Dionne xx

      Some people think the earth is flat, others understand how proof works and that you don't have to be standing on Mars watching it land to know it happened.
