Live from Mars

[Gord_in_Toronto]

Watch live views of Mars from a European probe



Watch for possible Little Green Men.

I think Martians are red. Helps them blend into the background so they are hard to spot.

That's just silly. They wear red camouflage.

Just started;

"First image arriving soon"

 

[Dave Rogers]

Not seeing any sailors fighting in the dance hall yet.

How about cavemen? I doubt that those Martians will be living above ground.

 

[catsmate]

It's not live, it's delayed by just over a kilosecond.

 

[Skeptic Ginger]

Well fudge, that's disappointing. I was expecting images from one of the rovers. Live from an orbiting satellite with narration by NASA people clearly trying to fill endless minutes with monotone droll is not what I expected.

Sorry for all you excited members but someone had to say it.

 

[Steve]

So no little green men camouflaged in red? Oh well....

 

[Myriad]

3:38 PM EDT first image finally arrived.

 

[Gord_in_Toronto]

Sorry.

That was so exciting.

 

[Skeptic Ginger]

Sorry.

That was so exciting.

I'm curious why. It was like watching a lunar eclipse on TV, not all that exciting.

I believe the smaller font for "exciting" and the lack of an exclamation point may have been the equivalent of a rolleyes smiley. AKA, sarcasm.

Possibly!

I am so sarcasm-detecting deficient.

But in my defense on my screen 'exciting' is not in a smaller font.

Sorry.

That was so exciting.

size size=1
size size=2
size size=3


Bottom line, like watching paint dry, maybe?

I was thinking of using that expression but did not want to slander drying paint.

I'll pay attention if they find Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders.
