I can still see them in your posts.

What happened to my images posted earlier? They were taken down! Apparently older links dont work as they update the addresses of the images to different ones. I guess in the future i need to save the images to my account elsewhere and then link it. Sorry guys for this.

Must be the Mars insurgency going on. ;-)

Anyway they have a great panorama with distant mountains looking nice, early today. Still no reasonably cool video after 60+ hours though. They probably wont do one as i imagined it. They dont care for people pure and simple. That will fuel all the galactic conspiracy theories about censorship of new worlds from multimedia captures consistent with the technological era of the "invader". Flip video camera and Mars dont go well together (even with warming protective system i suppose NASA is not a dreamer like me, even with a 900 kgr gorilla, no room for something so profoundly trivial as 20 Mb of 1 min capture, no it has to remain a gradual assembly of color corrected images drip by drip, we have to keep people at maximum distance from the holly sacred "experience" of actually being there.)


Here it is again hopefully for good;





Posts 52,59 are now without pictures until we recollect them properly. Its nice for the thread to have those images as we all gather them, i will never become cynic and call it a boring, dull, cold, silent place. For me its the closest to this planet and a chilling moment in time in the instant realization it always provided, that earth at least in many of its aspects is common place in the universe. Well minus life...

I still see the pics in posts 52 and 59 also

Maybe its a cache issue? I cant see them in firefox (but used to before of course and still see other images) (basically totally missing as if i posted only the description) but i do see them in internet explorer. LOL. And the cache in internet explorer was fresh because i havent used it to visit this thread ever. Alien anomaly from extra dimensions? Parallel worlds, lol. In that case sorry for the double posting and confusion but i am intrigued now!

I'm using Firefox, and I can see them both before and after clearing my cache, download history, and restarting the browser.

Fixed, it was my cache.

But anyway i am confident eventually they will not show for the reason i stated that they will eventually change the location of the images as they organize them better. So i will start using permanent personal image storage accounts to avoid this potential issue.

Very strange that a browser would show everything else fine but miss these 2. Sorry for the waste of your times.

So here is a bonus for your trouble from an other mission;

Is that Phobos or Deimos?

Dennis Miller was making fun of the shaky mars footage. He said it looks like DeLorean buying blow in a hotel room. Then he said that he could get the same pictures if he threw his iPhone out the car window in Barstow.

Earth and moon photo from Mars Global Surveyor:

You have to agree that a sunset on Earth and Mars is not exactly all that different under proper sky conditions. That could easily pass for pacific with some rocks on the left and some wide angle lens.

That pic of the earth moon system from the distance of Mars under zoom sure puts things in the right perspective of scale. I wonder how the first spaceship crew to go over the moon (apollo 8 i think) felt about the moment they saw earth from another world. It appears easy to be logical and detach yourself from the moment, becoming neutral observer, but it seems to me the more logical one is the less easy it gets to avoid the surge of emotions...once you notice the game played on the observer by the universe who created him and the rendez vous billions of years later. You cant avoid recognizing that the earth found a way to see itself and the eternal patience involved in constructing the moment.

If the Jovian system is not reasonably well explored by robots by the time I die, I will sigh from heaven

I saw a clip on CNN where the engineer who designed curiousity's cameras spent 80,000 of his own money to install the camera that filmed the landing. That's dedication.

nasa wouldn't pay the 80,000 themselves to film the landing? #retards

It was outside the budget.

The video is here

click Curiosity bids goodbye to heat shield and Curiosity's descent.

I wonder what the only video of the landing would sell for at auction if he didn't release it publicly. If they were his cameras, he could have encrypted the video.

Still unbelievable they cant bloody film an HD 1 min clip and upload it back. What kind of bs narrow minded cold hearted vision is NASA running that such elementary function is not possible.

EVEN amateur people on youtube film balloons to upper atmosphere in densities and temperatures worse than Mars and then back to earth with flip video cameras.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME???

6Mbits/s rate of upload even 1Mb/s even 0.1 Mb/s after 3 days. Its such a stupid trivial thing to do that would make the planet stay with open mouth!
