i’m fairly confident the reason everyone assumes Curiosity is about the size of a dog is because informal NASA press (and by extension, the general culture of people who care abt what NASA’s up to) talks about Curiosity like it is, in fact, an unusually smart and self-aware pet, and i think that’s beautiful.
Curiosity is a gentle nuclear-powered robot the size of a truck and I for one think that’s fucking awesome
i dont like how it looked back at me while it was shaking its ass
imagine Humans sending this on exploratory probes of distant planets and extraterrestrials making contact with this as their first introduction to our species
god i love boston dynamics
I kinda love how every time we make something that’s decent at walking and can stand on it’s own, our very next idea is “MAKE IT DANCE!”
