1. When is it due down? thanks

[Tx4obama]

2. I'm not sure, I just started watching. But I think that he said that there won't be ...

any photos back from Mars for at least an hour.

[Tx4obama]

4. 17 minutes till landing. 30 minutes till confirmation. Couple of hours until hearing from Curiosity

is what they just said.

[Tx4obama]

14. Yes, estimated time. n/t

15. That's what I heard, 10:30 PDT, so that would be 1:30 Eastern

At least that's when it's scheduled, though CNN said will know when they get the confirmation signal that it's landed.
