CKP 3rd Gear August 6, 2012 Author Share August 6, 2012 (edited) i rem it comes with a laser beam that can blast stones to pieces 8 minute into the long clip, you see the laser in action. Basically, the rover's laser blasts the rocks such that the lights emitted by the now "heated" rock will be analyzed by its camera. Sorry, there is no rock exploding into pieces or melting.

Kangadrool Supersonic August 6, 2012 Share August 6, 2012 Got shadow anot? Is this conjured up and filmed in movie studio? Many still wonder if they did ever land on the moon, let alone sending something to mars. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liping24cn Clutched August 6, 2012 Share August 6, 2012 Those UFO that landed on earth, could also be aliens Landrover. US could have adopted the technology. It's weird that earth technology is so good that we can land on moon in 69, and now so many landings on Mars. Yet, US tech co is fighting over patents and gadgets with Koreans. How on earth can a super tech that can land on Mars, can produce so low tech gadgets like iPhone or GM unreliable cars? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dankoo 4th Gear August 7, 2012 Share August 7, 2012 New tech and method and successfull! I wonder how is Curiosity powered? Solar? Didnt see any panels... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayleigh 6th Gear August 7, 2012 Share August 7, 2012 The method to land "opportunity" and "spirit" have been proven and tested. That landing method was neater and less sophisticated than the landing of "curiosity". Wonder why NASA did not use the same method as in the landing of "opportunity" and "spirit". Curiosity is much heavier? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
