this vid is fucking amazing, easily the highest quality footage i've ever seen of one of a landing like this
Getting 2K color video from a planet million of miles away is very :CommiePOGGERS:
if the upload speed were 50% faster, it would qualify as broadband in the US (2 Mbps vs 3 Mbps).
Imagine the pictures we'd get of a human moon landing today.
Hopefully from China as the impact on the US exceptionalism mindset would be funny to see.
People are going to call that fake. Also China will land a rover on Mars in May.
It's amazing how far we've come with the technology for space exploration. We're supposed to get sound from this rover as well, and I think that would be very cool to hear.
The James Webb space telescope is also supposed to launch later this year, and it will be 100 times more powerful than the Hubble...which is amazing to think about.

lets hope they clean the reflectors/lenses first before slinging it up into space this time
