Intense! You can see why those that have put their efforts into this call it "7 minutes of terror"!

Will be glued to the tv or monitor when this event takes place.
Hopefully it will fare better than the British Beagle 2 that used air bags as a landing system rather than this more technical system NASA is using,show offs :notworthy:

I have some questions:

What is underneath the blacked out square that warrants it being blacked out?
Why is there something that appears to resemble a joystick?
Why is it literally festooned with that symbol and similarly why go to the effort of writing curiosity on it? Who are these symbols meant to be seen by?
Why is so much wiring exposed when it doesn't need to be and could potentially be in harm's way?
