This is the rover that there have been a lot of videos about regarding its several stages of safely landing a sensitive rover.

 

Confirmation of the landing should come at about 10:31 p.m. PT Sunday for folks on the U.S. West Coast, or 1:31 a.m. ET Monday for those on the East Coast.

You'll probably want to start watching at the following times:

 

10:00 PM Pacific Time (West Coast)

11:00 PM Mountain Time

12:00 PM Central Time (Missouri/Chicago)

1:00 AM Eastern Time (East Coast)

 

EDIT: Also, in case you do not realize why this is so "important" or a big deal -- see
