And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Mars Curiosity Rover at Murray Buttes. Looks like a scene from Star Wars.
>>Named after Bruce Murray, a former director of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory who passed away in 2013, the Murray Buttes are just the latest stop on Curiosity's journey.Sep 12, 2016<<
Guess I'm blind. I don't see the Rover.

I'm with you, all I see are rocks.
DeleteA ‘camera’ is seldom in the picture it takes.
DeleteIn this case, since the rover doesn’t have a tripod and a camera with self timer to put on it, it cannot run around and ‘get in the picture’. ;-)
Seeing photos from a different planet, taken like this are amazing! Watching rockets land on their tails is amazing! It's good to be alive!
ReplyDeleteI wonder who "Murray" was/is?

DeleteWe'll know when we see that Jawa crawler and some sand people just before the video blinks out....
ReplyDeleteIf we see a tag on the rock that says, "Obiwan was here", it would spur the manned flight to Mars.
ReplyDeleteI spy some well camouflaged Flash Gordon "Clay Men".
ReplyDeletedoesn't appear to be ocean bottom - edges appear to be too sharp - sort of does away with the theory once proposed that Mars was covered by water
ReplyDeleteThat's sedimentary rock, don't you need water to deposit the sediment?
DeleteOr wind.
