wait, is the sound completely fabricated or did they actually have a functioning microphone during the descent?
Doubt it.

Still pretty cool though.

Considering he color corrected and pretty much had to use artistic license on every aspect of the video, and considering how clear the audio was, I'm pretty sure it's safe to say it was fake. It does help with the immersion, though.

It's not super exciting to see I guess, but Curiosity took a picture of a partial Solar eclipse where Mars' moon, Phobos, partially obscured the sun.

That's cool.
Yeah the article states that curiosity took multiple pictures so a timelapse video of it can be compiled. It just takes a lot of time to send the data back home, and they need the bandwidth for other things as well.

bumping with High-Resolution Self-Portrait by Curiosity Rover Arm Camera

Curiosity seems to have dropped off the radar somewhat (metaphorically speaking)
