Just a funny picture I've found
Sheesh, are people nowadays too lazy to even make
new photoshops? That's a good one, but it was around when Spirit landed in 2004.

I remember, back when dinosaurs ruled the Earth, the Seattle Science Center setting up a cylindrical room you walked in and closed the door to after Viking 1 took it's first panorama. You were in the middle of a 360º view of the Martian landscape. It was remarkable.

Good 'promo' video
I half expected to see an Autobot come up and grab it with a baseball mitt, or a baby alien in its crib grab for the rover as it descended on its skycrane and play with its 'new toy', or the ground open up just before landing and the planet swallow it whole.

Or at the end of the briefing a stage setup in some building (or out in the great outdoors) where they were filing all this on Earth.
(seriously, these were the things I thought would happen in that video!)
If I could animate I'd have a field day with this material! Hehe

We are the folks sending the flying saucers with the rock-vaporizing lasers this time. We are the Martians.

Yep! Ray Bradbury said as much back in the 1950s.

Just looking at the latest pictures the definition is amazing.
Just looking at the different shapes of the rocks wondering how many billions years it took for them to be worn down like that.
Going to be awesome when looking at something that isn't just dusty ground and a hazy crater rim.
This landing site doesn't look to be as exciting as the one Opportunity hit but this is a different mission with different objectives.
