Now that NASA’s Curiosity rover landed on Mars safely on Monday, you can watch live streams from NASA on the Curiosity Cam. The rover, which is 10 feet long (not including the arm), 9 feet wide, and 7 feet tall, weighs 2,000 pounds (i.e., 900 kilograms for our readers outside the U.S.). You may watch the Curiosity Cam below through UStream, but sometimes it is offline and during those times when they are not running live footage you will see recorded footage.
Other viewing is available through NASA’s website. If you are interested in seeing how Curiosity landed on Mars and a short overview of what will be the rover’s mission, check out this video:
