Tonight it was offical .... I was extremely proud to be an American ......
About 30 of the smart tech ind. kids from around the Berkeley,CA area decieded to have a " Martians Party " to celibrate the landing of the new NASA Mars rover, yep a Nerd Fest ....
And if you know anything about me..... NASA and Aerospace stuff is my favorite stuff ever and yes I am a total nerd....... So damn right I am showing up at the party dressed as an Martian from outer space!
This landing is very rad and it shows that if you put your mind to it and do the work it will work.... Good work to everyone that helped make it possible in every department big or small, it was a sucess!
I hope things like this get kids back thinking of the future without limits and that it takes a team to make a crazy thing like this work, from the grunts to the scientist.... everyone plays an important part in a future changing thing!!!

I have heard thru the machinist grapevine that the wheels have "JPL" in Morris Code so as it drives across the Mars dirt it leave the code, the origianl design with the actual JPL logo was just to much party for the dirt ... so in a last minute ditch effort they put it in Morris Code which is super bad ass and kind of top secret....
Matt from Meka Robotics and I
Matts Solar helmet transmitter he was wearing was really cool, I should have got some better pictures.
I looked more like a scrap metal hauler with a welding helmet on.... I was shooting for the Alien look
NASA live TV on the Wall for the room filled with people
Everyone was stoked !
I come in peace.....
We have landed !
