Dream Journal: Dreamwalker Chronicles Latest Entry: 01/02/2016 - "Hallway to Haven" (Lucid)(Or see the very best of my journal entries @ dreamwalkerchronicles.blogspot)
So what do we get like 3 black and white photos one of the horizon, one of the robot arm and some rocks..... |
|
Wow, no offense or anything, but you are kind of retarded. You have absolutely no sense of why they go there and what is involved in there. NASA does not exist to entertain the masses. And NO, that is NOT "why they go there." Not "for the footage." |
|
Good. Take samples of water and rocks too. I know there is more involved. But anyone with half a brain left wants to see some quality footage at the very least. Lame excuses like calling me a retard does not make the scary funny situation about a total lack of footage go away. Like I said. Footage is part of the package. Can't dish out what is naturally expected when you go to mars than ofcourse you are going to look silly when you don't deliver. Don't make lame excuses cause we know what is possible with technology and keeping it secret is also a lame and pointless thing. |

Cool, that craft was made just a few miles from here where I live, now its X million miles away, how interesting! |
|
I would rather die on my feet then to live on my knees.
We have plenty of pictures of Mars, why do you want more? We didn't send it up for re-runs. We sent it up to analyze the soil. If you want pretty pictures, NASA's website is chock full of 'em. |

Well skysaw, they landed in a region never before seen so, there are some things people would love to see, like new mountains we haven't seen...etc |

I'd be more interested in the water-ice science myself. |

NASA is only going to let you see what they allow you to see. If they find evidence of past alien life or E.T. in a cave eating Reese's Pieces, you're still going to get grainy, foggy pictures of the Arizona desert through an orange filter lens. |
|
They may as well but they may as can't. That's why their honesty is highly doubted because they don't do what is obviously expected as a minimum requirement of a mission. |
|
NASA has found all kinds of shit-- The Catholic Church is just paying them to keep it to themselves. |
|
What confuses the hell out of me is how they do the landing and can know exactly when it lands (they have a video where there is a landing "countdown" of sorts) exactly as it happens. It takes the signal a good 40 minutes to get back to earth (about 37 minutes to be exact), so how do they go about doing that type of stuff? Do they just set up something so it lands by itself (which is very impressive) and "guess" when exactly it should land? Or in those videos where the NASA crew watches it land, are they actually just looking at the signals 40 minutes later? |
|
They subtract forty minutes from their clock |

They build the landers with complete autonomy in mind - they fly and land themselves. |
|
Ah... my bad with the time there. I read that the Phoenix Spacecraft went on a "422 million mile journey." I assumed that was the total distance (where I got 40 minutes from). But still, why wouldn't the spacecraft go directly to Mars which is much less distance? |
|
A number of reasons actually. |
|
Most deep system probes use the gravitational fields of other bodies to 'slingshot' themselves towards their target, thus using less fuel. I haven't looked it up so I don't know if this is true or not, but it probably made a trip around our moon in order to gain some speed, which would add to the distance quit a bit. |
