Here are some links for future reference. If you here anything in the future about aliens or water PM me so we can share it with the world. Otherwise I will let this thread quietly fade into the sunset.

Have fun exploring .

That landing sequence is something straight from a Si-fi movie. The achievement of landing curiosity is a just amazing.

Now odyssey just needs to behave....
