I wish there was a way to watch it while it was happening.

Well, you won’t see it in real time, but you are going to see the descent. The rover is going to be snapping panorama pics all the way down. It has to be this way, because they don’t know what the rover is going to land on. It might be solid, but more than likely it’s gonna be methane slush and the rover is going to just plop into the drink, and NASA will have made the most expensive Slurpee in history.

LOL....at least if that happens, they will actually be hitting something instead of missing entirely like past missions
