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.
Just before my kid woke me up, the dream started out as a post apocalyptic setting, people bravely venturing into the wastelands in specialized combat vehicles periodically to do battle with literal monster trucks; flesh and blood monsters that have wheels for some reason.
