Set your alarms! Mars rover lands tonight.
Perseverance should be landing at 20:55 GMT. Landing in what is believed to be an old lake bed.

If it crashes and there's no camera there to see it
is it still a spectacle?

I'm looking forward to this
especially the bit where it accidentally breaks through the surface and wakes up an army of ice warriors

I'm thinking it will be those tripod things
That run around accompanied by a Jeff Lynne soundtrack. (hopefully)

Ten quid says the landing works perfectly
but the locals take exception to our invading Mars with Laser-armed Nuclear-powered Robot Tanks and take their vengeance against us.

No one would have believed
In the early years of the 21st century
That humans were watching affairs
Of the timeless worlds of space
No one could have dreamed that Mars was being scrutinized
As someone with a microscope studies creatures
That swarm and multiply in a drop of water
Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets
And yet, across the gulf of space
Minds immeasurably superior to ours
Regarded their satellite with nervous eyes
And slowly and surely, they drew their plans for landing

We're gonna build a whole new world for ourselves. Look, the cosmic rays shine on us and we're dead, right?
So we gotta make a new life where they'll never touch us. You know where? Uuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnndergraaaaaaaaaaaaand!

And if you get stuck underground
Elon Musk will launch a probe to go to Mars and call you a pedo

Lunar lander has got better than ever.
Still seems a bit slower than the 380zA version.
