What's it mean when a rover sees its own shadow?

I know, right? The @MarsCuriosity tweets are killing me.

I love how excited everyone at JPL looks.

Hey! It's breakfast. And I have a long drive to do today.

I'm drinking yogurt. Is that acceptable?

Good morning people! Question: will they be streaming video from the capsule/landing module instead if just the flight control?

Let's put it like this: by driving a car every day you're (general you) fucking up the planet for your prospective future kids.

This reads a bit like Fringe's title sequence, doesn't it?

It would be unethical to force anyone to go on such a journey, but even so I'm sure there will be more than enough volunteers. But living can be quite dangerous on Earth anyway.

Woah, some of those quotes are really quite cool.

That one puzzled me too. What would be ethically wrong with raising a family on a starship.

In other words we already built a colony, why send it anywhere?

Too bad it doesn't mention the locations, though.

Rumour has it it's late August. So not long to wait yet!

Ooh, does that mean Storm will be in it?

Days of Future Past happened in the cartoon, it was a two-parter episode.

Hmm... I don't think I've seen yellow buses when I was in the US.
