Curiosity's First Low-Resolution Color Panorama

NOTE: THIS VIDEO HAS BEEN REPLACED BY A NEW VERSION THAT PLAYS BETTER. LOOK FOR VERSION UPLOADED AUG. 12, 2012. This movie shows the first 360-degree panorama in color of the Gale crater landing site taken by NASA's Curiosity rover. It was made from thumbnail versions of images taken by the 34-millimeter Mast Camera on Aug. 8, 2012.

I admire your words... but I lost it at plant.

[Zlopras]

sorry that Mars does not seem real enough for you.

[frice2000]

To me...No. But to the general public who expect continuous entertainment? Yes. Adding some music, some narration, something along those lines gets the general less educated public interested in seeing these videos . This helps NASA hopefully get more funding in the future. That's why they release these videos to the public anyway. PR.

wow...you cannot be serious. -_-

It's a composite photo, made of lots of small photos put together. It didn't bother photographing itself, so those parts of the panorama are not there.

Guys can we expect any Videos from the rover at any point?

[fads f]

good point. have you seen the evidences? i mean the Disclosure Project and Dr. Edgar Mitchell(6th man who walk in space) who are saying that there are civilization other than humans? the 500 people i am referring are not common people. they are people with credentials.

And more than 500 military and government officials said there were WMDs, said the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq would be over about 10 years ago, said the Russians would nuke the world, etc. I'm pretty certain that there will be more than 500 who think the world is flat and was created less than 10,000 years ago, and more than 500 who think there's a god. Just because they say it, it doesn't mean it's true.

ps- I'd highly recommend you google and read the essay "Requiem For Rhodesia," which was written in the mid-1970s and predicted all that would come about for the next 20 yrs with uncanny precision. Read it. then think aout your united states of  the world. Lol you're already brainwashed and trapped in the prism, so I'm wasting my time on a NWO enthusiast....THINK FOR YOURSELF USING COMMON SENSE BASED ON YOUR OWN OBSERVATIONS.

[Robert Marino]

I was already in Harvard at 16...what's your point? You're obviously retarded bc you have no concept of "nationalism" and you haven't a thought in your head that wasn't placed there by your TV set or the wonderful educators at SDSU (what the hell is that? Is that like Devry institute?) I must say, your comment gave me the best laugh I've had in a while. The.."United states of the World?" You're already a cultural marixst even though I'd bet you don't even know what the word means....
