Spirit Flexes Its Arm To Use Microscope On Mars' Soil

NASA TV is a bad joke. Usually, it's some unattended cameras,

You're nuts. NASA-TV is wonderful for that exact reason.

I absolutely love stumbling on e.g. live and raw video feeds in the
wee hours of the morning from the Shuttle... No audio (except
for periodic communications with the astronauts), no glitzy
schlock, nothing to get in the way of some of the most incredible
and breathtaking views you'll ever see of our planet.

As for the one-sided interviews, etc, in these cases it's either
seeing that or dead air. Personally I'd much rather see the
former than the latter.
