Pictures coming in. This is truly unbelievable...126 million miles from earth. By the way, an incredible book about the human and spiritual dimensions of space travel: “The Book of Strange New Things” by Michel Faber.

Amazing to watch the step by step count down and the successful touchdown. NASA is already showing first images from Mars. A bit "dusty" due to the landing but so cool to watch.

are you tryin to be youthful or why are you writing "farklemt" this way?

This landing craft had to do so much on it's own ... it even had to look for a good place to land ... we've gone from self driving cars to self flying space craft ... it's really cool!

And a big shout out to scientists who made it happen. We need to to fight against the anti science movement that is pushed by the radical right.
