YEA!!!! My brother and I hugged when it landed. I will be checking every day for pictures. Were you using "Eyes on the Solar System"? It is the simulation program that you say on NASA tv. I was using it and following the landing simulation every second while they were providing commentary in the background

The first images are already down, taken through the dust caps which are still in place because of the dust the landing kicked up.

Well done, JPL!

That's pretty darn awesome. Congratulations NASA/JPL! :D

The first hazard camera photos (B&W, 256X256) are already down. If all goes well, Curiosity will extend its main camera and give us a nice big color photo sometime tomorrow.
