Just think of all the math and obsessive planning involved to control the rover from Earth when it takes 11 minutes to send/receive a command, assuming no issues.

These folks are as methodical as can be......
Said the landing area could be scanned and a landing solution figured out by the rover independently of NASA via prior satellite scans and external cameras and pre-programmed instructions. That part in particular blew my mind.

Anyone have any idea how long the video would take to get from Mars to earth, assuming iPhone and not a green text phone
