Does anyone know where you can access the raw telemetry from the rovers?
Things, like power generated, RF output, Energy usage? They are
always talking about America losing their leadership in science, all the
while the "SMART GUYS" have all the information. I think if there were
some public dissemination of this data, we could get a lot more excited
about it. I for one have had programming and electronic classes, and
have built robotics, so I know how things are supposed to work. It
would be nice to see that on a real live machine. I guess they think we
are too "stoopid" in order to understand such things. I for one would
love a crack at it.

If you want to see real live telemetry from really fast manned
vehicles, just watch the NASCAR and Indycar races on ESPN. Looks
like they beat you to figuring it out. Sorry.

the NSA
watch list program.


P381-382: NSA Director General Allen testified to Congress that there is no
statute that prevents the NSA from interception of domestic communications.
Asked whether he was concerned about the legality of expanding greatly its
targeting of American citizens, the NSA replied: "Legality? That particular
aspect didn't enter into the discussions."


P459: Innocent Americans - people neither targeted nor watch-listed - are
scooped up into the NSA's giant vacuum cleaner. This happens with
considerable frequency because of the way in which names and phrases are
jam-packed into the computers. Even though NSA's specialized supercomputers
have enormous storage capacities, the tremendous number of targets forces
the Agency to squeeze the watch lists together as tightly as possible.


P462-465: Its power to eavesdrop, the NSA had always insisted, came under no
earthly laws but rather emanated from some celestial "inherent presidential
authority" reposed in the chief executive by the Constitution.

Senator Edward M. Kennedy tried year after year to pass legislation to
require the NSA to submit to judicial review.

Finally, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act [FISA] was signed into
law by president Carter on October 25, 1978.

The key to the legislation could only have been dreamed up by Franz Kafka:

Probably not quite what you are looking for, but it's still kinda cool:

It is astonishing the extent the U.S. government feels its citizens and
the world's population must by spied upon.

The U.S. Government wants all communication systems in the world to be
designed so they can spy on it.

The U.S. Government wants to know every banking transaction in the world
in real-time.

What does it look like to you?
