They should do one of those comparison things where they put a human in the picture, because I think that that stuff is much bigger than it looks.

Caretstik Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 The chances against anything man-like on Mars are a million to one. Trust Ogilvy, man. And with all those lumps and bumps about I hope Curiosity has a self-righting mechanism. But I'm fucking stoked for Curiosity as well. Had a soft spot for things astronomical since I read the novel of 2001 yonks ago.

Yeah, it has bunch of scientific instruments, and its mission involves poking around the crater and the nearby mountain to zap rocks and detect organic compounds. Part of the intent in placing it near the mountain is to get a better picture of the environmental record by investigating the different layers up the mountain's elevation.

FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work!

Yes, the you enter hell via a portal on Phobos - it was created inadvertently during a teleportation experiment on Mars' moons conducted by a multi-national conglomerate called Union Aerospace Corporation secured by space marines. Bang on about the Evil Dead 2 and Total Recall references, especially the former. I completely avoided the Doom movie b/c it had some lame plot about viruses or some shit.
