If you haven't followed the story, watch the short film
Seven Minutes of Terror first.

Can't wait to see what happens next!

Watched the live stream of the landing with Colin last night. Pretty incredible machine. They had a first picture just a couple minutes after it landed. Elvis wasn't in it.

Friends of my daughter machined the structure of the lander in San Mateo. I was glued to the images!!

I'm not exactly sure why, but I haven't been this excited about a "mission" for a long time.
But, after seeing how complicated the landing was, I can't wait to see what this puppy can do once it really gets going!
