My Curiosity is on Mars!

on 07 August 2012

These images [left] may look familiar - they are the FIRST photos received from Mars Rover Curiosity after landing on Mars at 10:31 pm PDT. The photo is a screenshot of the live feed, but you can download the originals.

Since then, NASA has been receiving images and we're going to share our favorites with you.
