Yet another announcement about an announcement. But I read a couple other short blurbs, and it's being described as "historic" and "earthshaking"...
So who knows. Maybe the real deal?
Personally, I think the political and military spectrums will announce they found Obamas real BC way before they announce life!!
dog poop?
Just in time for this “historic event” and its overwhelming impact on the good that NASA does when the budget talks over sequestration will be taking place.
Apparently, they’ve learned something from Breitbart about “Slow-Release News Programming for Maximum Impact.”
I think it’s more like they have to talk to all these entities and governments and get permission...
I’m still kinda miffed they didn’t put a decent microscope on board. They got 17 cameras, but they couldn’t mount a half pound microscope???
Of course just because they didn’t SAY there’s a microscope, that doesn’t mean there isn’t one...
Trump learned that
It found graffiti saying “Kilroy was here”.
Dec 21 announcement?
Article says sometime Dec 3-7
But I hear ya. I thought about that connection as well...
Can opener?
Not sure, but I’m thinking it might be biological.
There are only so many times the can snow the people with these stupendous, ground-breaking announcements of a coming announcement, only to end up showing a bunch of slides and then they say “See...? We found quartz crystals!!”
Yawwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...
Voting slips with McCain checked off?
So it’s not the moon that’s made of cheese?
The MAHLI can take photos down to 14 microns per pixel.

Naw, better than that, I’m guessing a Twinkie :)
I knew there was a new form of microscopic imaging in development. They showed it on the Today show, where the inventor/sponsor? held it in the air over somebodies arm, and it showed clear images of the cells lined up nice and regular.
Bacteria and stuff like that are usually alot smaller than mammalian cells, though.
SAVE NASA FROM THE OBAMA BUDGET CUTS!!
Yep, the old microscopes of my childhood are pretty much passé much like my 35mm camera.
