  That's really cool. Would love it if they had some video, or alternatively made a visualization of the entire landing sequence using received data. Like for instance a video of the telemetry you took screenshots of.
  • joering2 14y ago
    yes. or at least upload full video-stream of those screenshots. hope to see this on yt soon!

    An excellent, data-rich visualization was done for the Huygens probe that landed on Saturn's moon Titan as part of the Cassini-Huygens mission: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/cassini/multimedia/pia08117.html http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/cassini/multimedia/pia0811...

      Exactly something like that I am looking for, thanks
  • trafficlight 14y ago
    I believe there will be video from the perspective of the crane throughout the landing.
    • marvin 14y ago
      That's amazing, I can't wait to see that :)

  That is the first time I've seen a real-life useful computer display actually look like something they dream up in the movies. (counterexamples welcome!)

    Life imitating art. There was an IAMA on reddit many moons ago by a guy who designed those screens. Obviously they use real life examples and embellish.

      I'd be interested to read that; could you edit a link into your comment? My Google-fu is failing me...

          Never knew there was a name for these -- FUIs (Fake User Interface). There's even a whole subreddit dedicated to them: http://www.reddit.com/r/FUI/ http://www.reddit.com/r/FUI/
          • PostOnce 14y ago
            Wow, thanks for the reddit link, I would never have found that.
      • skeletonjelly 14y ago
        Yeah I can't find it either. Here's a request where a guy pipes up: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/kwi3c/iama_request_someone_who_designs_fake_computer/ http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/kwi3c/iama_request_som... A guy who did the graphics for Moon http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/f50mf/sci_fi_if_youre_interested_in_the_scifi_movie/ http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/f50mf/sci_fi_if_... But neither are the one I'm thinking of sorry. :(

  I missed the landing sequence. Is there a video recording available somewhere ?

  Why are these not games yet? HN has dozens of people capable of creating a nice lunar lander / mars lander sim.
