I can't wait to see this rover in mars and the new web's telescooe in the space

[shravanlala]

NASA has made all us human full of proud as it is doing mind blowing wonders in space . Hats off NASA

[TheHemingwayWannabe]

NASA Curiosity Rover photographs are full of wonder.

[shravanlala]

waiting for the day this Rover lands on mars

[thelionskiln]

The rover is beautiful, a masterpiece of engineering.

[eduardopadilla]

Incredible to see it here in the planet in the laboratory!

I looked at more than 14, 000 images from the Mars reconnaissance Orbiter mro satellite, you can clearly see from the images that there was water that float on the surface making River beds and what you see significant oceans and it's going to be some interesting fossils in the bottom of those channels and those lakes rivers and streams that we see on the surface tomorrow the aftermath of it it's clear that water Channel amazing features on her surface

Oh, Man, ... Although I appreciate the footage, could we possibly have some footage of the actual tests inside the chamber?
Plus, can't wait for the rovers return this month, Looking forward to watching the mounting the rover to the descent stage.

Run Flat tires, 6 wheel steering, and powered by a Flux Capacitor

[jeremiahst]

Can't wait what they simulate next.

Just wondering if there has been any commonality between unmanned rover technology and any we may need for manned rovers? I would have thought a modular system would be worthwhile or is it simply the case it is cheaper to develop each separately to keep down weight for transit?

[Dra]

every aspect of her design is unequivocally superlative, however the tires the wheels, should have some redundancy, if the outer shell of the wheel brakes then the spokes will eventually Break by for travel, we should have layered materials tested under these conditions 238 below, so if one of the materials fails that there's a secondary material to follow and it gives us an opportunity to test the variety of materials on the these conditions

[zenaidamacabuyagoriol]

Can't wait to hear it's true name

[Dra]

The nuclear power plant is most significant because of the unlimited virtually duration

JpL watch Baja 1000 Rover needs repair chase vehicles

[davidl]

Air is loaded with bacteria. I know it's a great idea to try( suits), but I can't see it stopping contamination.

[ahmedbassam]

As if a civilian going to the army . Poor rover !!

[Dra]

The wheel should be like the rings of a tree, if one piece fails then the second layer of different material will compensate and be tested at the same time of being able to handle itself on the Martian condition, but no matter what happens we still have a wheel we still are able to manoeuvre the vehicle the spikes if the outer shell is damaged and broken and and it comes off, or it's even eaten by microbes which is good possibility that may have happened, it will not be able to transfer us the surface the wheels without the wheels with stock we should give the wheels priority and make them multiple at testing we were able to get spectroscopy from each of the materials under the conditions as the situation in the car and using 3D printing to assemble them we can make multi-layer materials and test them all under the conditions and see how those conditions which materials favour

No real reason to have this in time-lapse herky-jerky... we've got Space & Time (!)... Would rather be able to watch it as I see fit got myself one them digital machines which allow me to randomly access and pace and run and re-run things. Got me one of those digital machines which allow me to store and retrieve...


Anyway thanks for this sometheless.
