Sky crane landings are pretty magical

Hope nothing goes wrong and we get pics really quickly... 8 minute 1-way delay, but they can relay data at 6Mbps through MRO

You have to camp out early in the Martian atmosphere. Get there by noon and should be fine

Parachute deployed, landing legs deployed, radar now looking for ground.

Very good sign.

Next thing is for the landing thrusters not to explode or crash
