Thanks for the link.

And they succeeded!

I think the Curiosity descent should be renamed from "Seven minutes of terror" to "Seven minutes of triumph".

An amazing feat to an automated and complicated maneuver. Hats off to the scientists and engineers!

I took a picture with the parachute opened. I really have a good zoom on my camera, isn't it?
