I didn't know they got elves to work on Curiosity!

@freemo

I was just cracking a joke, like "I'm in denial that the rover is actually that big so I'll just tell myself that the scientist standing next to it is an elf, building it in a tiny elf workshop."

@MutoShack ahhh, i figued you knew something about that woman I didnt :)

@freemo I don't want to live in the timeline where I've seen this image.
@freemo Huh, It makes sense it would be this big instead of a toy car when you think about it...

@deadheat yea it makes sense for sure. But when I see the pictures, I think partly due tot he fish-angle lens it just comes across much smaller.

@freemo Yeah, I also thought it was much smaller! In Mars there's nothing familiar around to make a size comparison too, those rocks may be of any size... Turns out they were actually much bigger too.
