Absolutely amazing. Watched the whole thing live. NASA had a lot riding on this. It's a big success, and a very important step towards landing men on mars. This was additionally important due to the new landing technology they were testing, which worked perfectly. Well done USA!

An amazing accomplishment. Who knows this might bring the US presidential candidates to pay more attention to NASA's future.

Too many British in my glorious clan, can't take it anymore. I feel like pulling a 1937 Stalin on you all.
