Looks typically over elaborate from NASA so hopefully it won't crash and burn. Be nice though if they did one of these on another planet or moon just for a change. They're always going on about how interesting some of the outer planets and the moons of saturn look. Great, shove a rover on those then. We've got 4 on Mars already.

Lift off is 3pm GMT saturday.

Nice promo vid from NASA !
Is it me or is the rocket descent module thingy just a tad like Thunderbird 2 without a body kit ? (40 to 52 seconds)
And where did it go ? Hope it doesn't just drop onto the Rover and squash it.......

Launch went OK on Saturday, now just 9 months of easy listening for the journey !!

lol, POD7 - Mars Rover.
