Sound of the wind on another planet.

[Westmarcher]

I'm in my sixties now and never thought I would hear the sound of the wind on another planet.

I'm blown away. 

[FierceKitty]

That is truly awe-inspiring.

[Steve J]

Pretty damned amazing!

[Shedman]

Have you never listened to Hawkwind?

It's amazing that this little robot is sitting on another planet, just taking pics and collecting data.

I remember (just) the first moon landing. A few years later on and walking to school, it seemed surreal to look up at the moon and know that there were men on it. Now we have this and it's simply incredible. What next I wonder? Man on Mars in my lifetime?

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Good stuff

[Techno]

Truly amazing !

I really hope NASA will send a probe to one of Jupiter's moons, (Europa to be precise) and see if there really is a liquid ocean under all that ice....and if so, see if there might be 'life' swimming around.

Whether that'll happen in my lifetime, is another matter.

So cool.
Mars, the only planet entirely populated by robots...

[Raider4]

From a few years ago there's the sound of the Huygens probe falling through the atmosphere of Titan.

So cool.
Mars, the only planet entirely populated by robots...

Well, there's been a few landed on Venus, but they don't tend to last very long.

That we know of Will...

It's amazing

Take care

I, for one, welcome our Rogue Drone overlords

Wow!

Some people say I am on another planet, and my tablets give me lots of wind   

Would anyone like  a recording of my wind?

Would it surpass Blazing Saddles?

Would it surpass Blazing Saddles?  :-

If you were around at the right/wrong time, yes

And today I read where Voyager 2, launched in 1977, has officially left the heliosphere and is just a mere 11 billion miles from Earth! The next step is to enter the Oort Cloud, which it is expected to enter in 300 years and exit it in about 30,000 years. I'm not marking my calendar to see either of these last two events, but I'll let you know if I change my mind. Those of you who have smart phones, might like knowing that you have 200,000 times more power in it than either of the Voyagers!

Yes the timings are quite mind boggling.
