Good to know it's not capable of a duck face.
"The latest selfie from NASA's Curiosity rover marks the "Marsiversary" of the robot's landing on Mars. By Earth's reckoning, that landing happened almost two years ago — 687 days, which equals one Martian year.
The six-wheeled, nuclear-powered rover has done a lot since its touchdown on Aug. 5, 2012, including studies that determined its stomping grounds were once potentially habitable for Earth-type organisms. But there's lots more to do, including a climb up the foothills of Mount Sharp, also known as Aeolis Mons. .."
This part could end up being pretty scary, can you imagine what some intelligent life form would think about some of the inane crap some people might upload here, LIKE DUCKFACE SELFIE? Ugh. It is a cool idea tho.
"A student-led project called Time Capsule to Mars kicked off a $25 million crowdfunding campaign on Monday, with the aim of sending 4-inch-wide probes to the Red Planet.
For 99 cents, supporters can upload a photo, an audio or video clip or a snippet of text to be included on a quartz-crystal memory module enclosed within the spacecraft. The module would be designed to last for millions of years, preserving the messages to be decoded by future Mars colonists.
