The Mule Posted August 29, 2012 #26 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) "Life on Mars?" by David Bowie might've been more appropriate. "The Eve of War" from Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds probably less so... Life on Mars? would have gotten my vote followed by the entire Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars cd Edited August 29, 2012 by The Mule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfrmboy Posted August 30, 2012 #29 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I think it would have been cool to have a contest for choice of song . Couldn't they send / beam another song to it to be played ? They do control it from Earth afterall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazzard Posted August 30, 2012 #30 Share Posted August 30, 2012 They should have picked this one instead,... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithers Posted August 30, 2012 #31 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Seriously... out of all songs they choose this one? Great... now the aliens are really going to destroy us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waspie_Dwarf Posted August 30, 2012 #32 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Couldn't they send / beam another song to it to be played ? They do control it from Earth afterall. The song was a good test of the communications systems and a good piece of PR (after all people have commented in this thread that have never contributed to the more "serious" threads on Curiosity) but the time for such frivolity is over. Curiosity is now starting the task it was made for and it's going to need all its bandwidth to transmit the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
