Here's One for the UFO Conspiracy People



The recent landing of the Curiosity Rover on Mars was an incredible feat of engineering and a testament to American excellence.  However, the landing site it is certain to raise the interest of UFO conspiracy people. Check out the caption for picture 26.  NASA scientists had divided the targeted landing area into 1 mile squares, a total of 151 of them.




In which quadrangle did Curiosity actually land? Cue the Twilight Zone music...

Oh yes, it was in quadrangle 51.

I wonder if they could use some of these on the surface of Mars...
