The sound of Martian wind. Amazing.

The gentle but violent red noise of a martian wind unites even the most divided of RM's foes.

Data release starts around 10am EST (about 2 hours from this post). Get excited!

IAm kinda thinking this is a soft entry into telling us this thing is coming to Fuck all of us.

It’s ten miles long. A planet killer only needs to be 6 miles long.

Also, this probe is travelling 9 miles a second?
That’s astounding. How did they get it to move so fast??

I know they did a gravity assist at Jupiter, but most of the velocity was just from the boosters during and after liftoff.

It’s so bizarre. 9 miles a second in our terms would see your flesh and skeleton melt.
But in space it’s nothing. As immense a speed as it is.

It’s all so mind bending and brilliant

<<heavy panting>>

More images and data expected today--not sure of the time, but hopefully soon.

Why can they fit two 13MP cameras on my phone, but nothing good on these probes?

Anders · **Posted:** Wed January 02, 2019 2:57 pm

Doubt your phone could manage this:

This is the same probe, and a picture it took of Pluto. It just takes time to send pictures through space.

Anders · **Posted:** Wed January 02, 2019 2:58 pm

Think we will get a better picture in a couple of hours.

Our universe is so rad!
