Perhaps this is an example of trolling but let's face it there are people out there who genuinely believe the Curiosity landing is a hoax, as much as the Apollo moon landings were a hoax, or climate change is a hoax.
A friend of mine alerted me that on one of Melbourne's radio stations 3AW, a listener claimed the Curiosity landing was a hoax "as the fuel tank was too large". Obviously this luddite doesn't know that Curiosity is powered by a plutonium oxide generator, but it serves to illustrate that ignorance can lead to conspiracy theories.
