Saw the MSL video, which was similar to the MER video. It was awesome. Will try to get a copy

Not of the descent stage. It will have leaked hydrazine and other ugly compounds after crashing. I would expect them to give it an exceptionally wide berth.
Heatshield, sure. Backshell and Parachute - from a distance >> the length of all the lines and the chute. Six impact craters from ballast ejected before 'chute deployment - why not. But not the descent stage. |

Very nice animation. One question: shortly before atmospheric entry there are two little L-shaped blocks separating from the capsule. What's that?
