The Medium is the message (Mars Rover)

MARS ROVER 

"The Medium is the message"  



When NASA landed the Curiosity on Mars it was a big day for the whole world cause this new robot has an up to date technology that's able to take great quality photos and to share it to everyone and most importantly to discover if there any form of life on this little red plant. Cause everyone has this image of this Plant as a dusty red sanded desert (like a scene  in Star wars) but to see an actual image form another plant this is big step for NASA since the moon landing(until people started questioning if the ever did do it) and what makes this one special especially in today's world with technology going faster than a bullet  the rover able upload images every week and have "Mars Curiosity" on twitter so people in NASA talks can talk to any of the public about the mission and what the plan to do. cause we all know that what NASA does it really the government that knows frist and asks what can be said but in this cause the public can trust what happens in this mission and can inspire anyone that it is possible for humans to get out there and explore the future is here and finally answer some very old questions.

Marshall McLuhan talks about  the examples that he would point out in this topic that i'm talking about is that people would have thought different than it was impossible to get to mars but once people can 
communicate by NASA showing them images of Mars every few days and be able to have a lab on board the rover to do  test samples which shows to people that we can explore what's out in there more and hope to have a more understanding of space and what lye's out there.  


That's what i thought when we mention that "The medium is the message" when talking about the mission on Mars and the public opinion towards it.
