The copter had referred to its opponent as "Rovers" just once too often, and implied an incestuous relationship with its sister machine Curiosity - and that it has six diodes on the end of each arm.

Site Supporter Cheese Posted May 4, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) SN15 is supposed to be launching today, for those that are interested. It's a high altitude flight test, followed by another landing attempt - so will probably end in a massive explosion again. EDIT: It's been cancelled again, FFS.

Believe it or not, they do occasionally go to plan... Maybe for the next one, I'll wait for T-1hr, which usually means it's going to happen.

Traf Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 If it landed on the Hulme Arch bridge, it could wipe out a massive shithole and it's only about 2 miles from both grounds, so hopefully the resultant tremors could bring both those down too. Not that I've given it much thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
