Watching it live you could really feel the joy and excitement they felt, through the screen. Really makes all these conflicts around the world seem petty for a moment.

Maybe; I haven't received a NASA-gasm watching the Olympics before, that's for sure!

After viewing the landing sequence, I thought there was a good chance Curiosity would make it on Mars for sure . . . in several thousand pieces.

I'm absolutely delighted it made it; an incredible achievement for what is undoubtedly a crack team of engineers and scientists.
