The landing of Curiosity is scheduled for August 6 of 2012, which will be right smack in the middle of London's Olympic games. Many think the Olympic Games (or maybe moreso, the ritualistic opening and closing ceremonies) will be a curiosity.
As a matter of fact, I predict the ceremonies to be the biggest spectator event in history. Certainly it will be full of rituals, participants, CGI and holograms and who knows what else?
