7 Minutes of Terror

     It's pretty amazing what human beings have done and continue to do by constantly pushing the limits, especially when it comes to what goes on outside of our planet.  We definitely lose sight of our very tiny place in this unending universe.  This video exemplifies that by NASA scientists explaining and showing a hypothetical video of their next mission of sending a rover named Curiosity to Mars.  I'm still amazed at the level of precision, calculation, and hope that these people have when it comes to this cosmic endeavor.  I'll let the video explain the rest….best part is that we actually get to find out if their uber -expensive "science project" actually works at 10:31 on August 5th when Curiosity is set to touch down.
     As disappointed as we get everyday with negative news of people doing terrible things, it's uplifting to know we still have minds with no boundaries and adults can still continue to dream for the stars.
So cool…..
