Microsoft broadcasting the interstellar event via your console If you're a bit of space nut you'll want to tune in tomorrow for a very cool insight in NASA's latest mission - the arrival of rover 'Curiosity' on Mars. \t
Wait, they can stream live video all the way from mars? That's insane, last I heard it took forever just to get pictures sent lol. Maybe I'll check it out
Some dude that's a part of the mission was on the daily show or colbert report the other day. He said it takes them about 15 minutes or so to get the signal. So it's not live in realtime, there is a delay.
I dont think so Im downloading it now and it said nothing about being gold only. It is a pretty big file almost 500 mb for this app.
Apparently it will land at 10:31 PM California time. Not sure if its today or tomorrow though. http://forum.grasscity.com/science-nature/1086947-nasas-rover-curiosity-approaching-mars.html
For that stupid game or to watch the stream? If they require a kinect just to watch the stream that is ridiculous.
[quote name='"deadkndys"']What a load of shit you need a kinect sensor to use the app.[/quote] I'm pretty sure this is incorrect. I don't have kinect and I was able to go into the live event player and there was a countdown going on. Set a reminder on my phone for tomorrow
an hour left on the count down. it has 8:30 pst and thats in 20 minutes though. i just barely found this thread and downloaded this app haha im usually never in the main screen for the more then 2 seconds if it wasnt for this thread i wouldnt have found it oh didnt notice it was august 5th not august 4th. hopefully i can remember
wait but they are in space and it takes 20 inutes for the signal to get back but its like the theory of relativity so they are aging slower but theres a delay to the slowed aging proscess. so its in real time!( head explodes)
I was wrong about having a kinect to view the landing. But for some reason I cant find where to watch the landing on my dashboard. Heres a live feed for anyone who wants to watch it.
