Curiosity Landing

Today, the new Curiosity rover will land in a crater on the surface of Mars. It will touch-down at 10:31 p.m PDT. As of now, the rover is in good condition and preparing for landing. Earlier today, members of the Curiosity team made a few adjustments to the rover's landing sequence. At 2:25 PDT this morning, Curiosity was about 261,000 miles away and traveling at about 8,000 mph. You can "watch" the landing tonight on NASA TV. I have made a page on this blog so you can stream it to your computer.
