If I found something like that trekking around in my part of the desert, I'd steal the batteries.

@Arizona_Patriot
I'd steal the whole thing and use it to make mobile Martian porn...

I'm hoping this works because that landing sequence looks very complicated. One little thruster twitch while it's hanging on that teather lowering to the surface will send the whole thing swinging side to side....with a potential catastrophe for the rover.

Wow.. Nasa? Or some Rube Goldberg competition?
So, if it could have held water, then it could have held life, therefore it did hold life and we discovered it. Bonuses anyone?

The first things humans are going to have to do when we get to Mars is clean up all of our garbage.

Seems like an insanely complicated descent. Can't use bubble wrap and let it bounce to a stop?

wouldnt it be easier like before and use the inflatable bubbles for landing?..
