Yea I didn't think it was actually to scale, and didn't realize the author was claiming it as an accurate model. I just thought it was a more complete way to perceive our location in space, where people often depict planets rotating around a statically placed sun, when in fact it is not.

It's pretty awesome to see an animated video of the planet orbiting sun where the whole system is also moving. It's something I hadn't seen done before and I think it's awesome.

This kind of stuff never ceases to amaze me. These people built and sent something tens of millions of miles away, and engineered it to land safely and then do all sorts of robot poo poo. On loving MARS.

And all I do is post inane poo poo on facebook.

Yeah it's insane what they pulled off. Completely absurd achievement. I feel proud to just be the same species as them even if my greatest achievement is eating a stunning amount of Doritoes during Superbowl XLIII.

There's an article about their software development methodology in CACM (2/2014). At my $WORKPLACE we use Coverity and think we're cutting edge. NASA used four different static analyzers on the MSL software. :black101:

I watched way too much of this show with my dad to know the exact voice and cadence used in that statement.

If I wasn't on my phone, I would post more Get Smart gifs.

Could at least flip one or two, maybe.
We've had this discussion before, there is a lip at the top that stops them. You only really see the outer-most layer of the fence in the gif.

They still have mad hops, though.
