Who decided to anthropomorphize the rover like that? It’s creepy and honestly scientifically dishonest, like the rover has intelligence and is writing the posts. Something for children, but children hate being fooled like that and being talked down to. It’s something I might expect from the current version of NASA though.
- brrwind 4y agoIt's... the twitter profile of the rover, it's not that big of a deal
- Toutouxc 4y agoI don't find it any more disturbing than buying car tires from the Michelin tire guy (he's actually called Bibendum) or getting batteries with the Duracell Bunny on them. Some people, even educated and technically inclined people, like their tech a little anthropomorphised.
