Totally Cool!
 
Mars Curiosity Descent - Ultra HD 30fps Smooth-Motion

Best descent video so far, WOW!

You can follow the descent of the heat shield nearly all the way to the ground until the camera moves away from it.

Excellent.
Does this mean you'll be posting random pictures from Mars now?

I am always in awe of the creations of intelligent human beings. People who are NOT like me, an average person who has been known to be amused by a bug zapper.

When I see that all that comes to mind is 'WHOA....Dude!... It's like - MARS MAN!' :D

The shield breakaway almost gave me vertigo on the retina display on my iPad.... Insanely good footage when you figure how long it takes to get here....

It's all faked. Red filter on the camera and shot in the Mojave desert.
