That's awesome! Especially on the iPad - you can simply move it around with your finger, or pick up the iPad and let the movement change the gyroscopic view ...

No aliens to be seen thus far though ...

It's a nuclear battery...

It contains about 5kg (10 pounds) of plutonium-238 (non explosive), and can power the rover for at least 14 years. This motor will supply energy to the Mars Science Laboratory night and day for as long as it can move.

I'm putting one on my GQ soon...LMAO
