Mars InSight - Is it going to make it? 35 minutes!

Anyone else watching the landing? I love stuff like this!

  • Gonna make it and it’s going to be awesome
  • Going to burn up
  • Going to make it to the surface but won’t be able to communicate back

That initial transmission looks like bug splats on a windshield. Although they’re calling it “dust”
