follow the mission here to see live what's going on at Mars...

use Live mode to make like you're riding along in real time :thumbsup

nicely, all the planets and the sun are "behind" the probe in a nice line, Saturn peaking up above the Mars horizon just as it's heading into Mars.

I'm predicting it landed safely :sun:

This video is the (Google+ Hangout) replay of numerous scientists’ real-time chatting and excitement in anticipation of Curiosity’s landing on Mars last weekend. Each scientist was speaking from her/his own location in North America including the NASA JPL media room. I watched in real life what is now this video, and it’s handy now for your viewing pleasures.
