Great video from NASA about the seven minutes of terror – the time between entering the Martian atmosphere and landing.

I remember when the two smaller rovers made their trip and landed on Mars. I loved watching the videos and thinking about all the math that had to go into launching something from Earth and knowing exactly what time and where these robots were going to end up some 8 months later and millions of miles away.
I hope to watch this landing with my son Chance on August 5, 2012 at 10:30 PST.

Rob lives and works in the town of Jackson, MS where he leads the interactive department at an awesome advertising and branding agency. Life is slower than most places in Mississippi, and Rob tends to like it that way. Some of his favorite life experiences include sailing across the Atlantic Ocean in a 44ft sloop, learning to speak Swahili while living along the lower slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and zipping along the curviest of Mississippi country roads in his VW Rabbit.
