We'll have lots more for you later, but YES, according the data we have so far, the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity has successfully landed at Gale Crater on Mars! The mood here at JPL is absolutely insane! The press conference should start soon, and we'll get you all the details as soon as we can, along with pics as soon as they're available.
HOORAY!!!
