AThis is remarkable. Is there an animated rendition of the flight and landing?

How long will it take until it arrives on Mars?

Also, what happens to the sky crane once Curiosity is dropped off? Does it fly off?

This is incredible....

I think that they're considered to be "no deposit, no return" items.
