If you like space stuff you'll should know that NASA plan on landing their new Robot on the artic plane of Mars (or close to it) at about 7h15(EDT)...

The coverage start a 6h30pm (EDT)

I always like to watch those thing land. Even if you don't see them, you can smell the tension in the Control Room

"International" partners like Canada.

Although the event itself was awesome the TV coverage was very anti-climatic.

A LIDAR equiped weather package is the Canadian contribution.

And I expect the CCDs in the stereo camera are from DALSA's Bromont QC facility (as are the current rover's).
