OT :-)

What good is it?

Not taken with iPhone...

Even so, how could it be real?

I don't see any Martians...

Oh well maybe it is real, I think it landed during one of their "holy" holidays...

Was that a JPL vid?

I wonder as the sound seemed too real, seemed dubbed, foley as they call it. And at the end the "video" is really Ken Burns type photo to video stuff.

Awesome none the less. Awesome universe.

There are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on all the oceans, or so I've heard from a number of astrophysicists. Unimaginable. And we are finding that there are tons of habitable planets, which we all knew would be the case.

I'm always on the look out for the space brothers at night when I visit the desert or the high sierras. Probably have a heart attack if they decided to talk to me.


El Cajon Unarians... most humorous religion ever. I think they probably still have free hors d'oeuvres on Sunday morning.

Breaking News: Video of Mars landing shown to be a fake.

After being outed on a number of websites, Nokia Corporation (NOK) admitted that the video purportedly of a Lumia 920 landing on Mars was in fact taken by the Curiosity landers camera and that the video was in fact a "simulation" of what the footage would have looked like, once the Lumia's Mars landing capability was fully rolled out in a future version of Windows Phone 8, whenever that might be, assuming that version was available on a 920, which it likely wouldn't be given the current history of WP announcements obsoleting current phones even before the replacement was launched let alone available.

In related news, Nokia stockholders said that they were actually researching ways of getting Steven Elop to Mars, and pointed out that whilst it was ambitious to attempt it, they only needed to raise the money for a one way trip.
