Since this is made from splicing together all the photos, I assume then that the sounds are just being faked?

- ceejayoz 14y agoI think they're taken off NASA's animation of the landing process. The rover has no microphone on board.
- Cushman 14y agoYes, the sound is fake. There is sound on Mars, though very quiet from our perspective, but the rover (and especially the lander) doesn't have a microphone. I did find this totally cool video that uses the status tones the lander sent back to earth, though: http://www.space.com/17110-screaming-down-to-mars-how-curiosity-s-descent-sounded-video.html http://www.space.com/17110-screaming-down-to-mars-how-curios...
- laserDinosaur 14y agoHa, I guess that makes sense.
