The Curoisity Rover [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tweetlaunch) account (@MarsCuroisity) was recently set up to make a mockery of the entire rover mission to Mars.

There has been much hype about the Curiosity Rover heading to Mars, as it is NASA and the United States' latest venture into space. NASA released a [video](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7-minutes-of-terror) explaining the intricate landing procedure and Oreo [Tweeted](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mars-rover-oreo) about it. However, some are of the opinion that NASA's mission has just been a massive waste of tax money. Curoisity Rover is definitely a part of this crowd. Using vulgar language to effectively relay the anger and confusion as to why so much funding went into a rover that would just take pictures of the 'little brown rocks' on Mars, makes up the main activity of the account.

If you are of the same opinion and would enjoy someone else's ranting, check Curoisity Rover out.
