      Not likely, at the moment. Elon Musk will have to wake up soon. He can even develope the best rocket motor of all time; it won't work with chemical propulsion.
      Still better to dream on. If nuclear propulsion becomes real, then we will reach Mars soon after. It is promissed for 2027. Not only NASA/DARPA, but also by 2 English companies. Perhaps I may even live long enough to see a human land on Mars.

    Dreksler,
    Just a point of English (you are doing so well on this video, but this one thing stands out).
    These are the two expressions that you should use.
    "How it looks."
    "What it looks LIKE".
    But don't put the two together: "HOW it looks LIKE". XXX wrong! :) You consistently put them together, and you shouldn't. :(
    So, if you start with "how", don't add "like".
    But if you start wth "what" then you want to add "like".
    We can take these two expressions apart so you can see why:
    How does it look? This is how it looks. (adverbial usage)
    What does it look like? It looks like this (what). (prepositional usage)
    While everyone understands you when you accidentally blend them, it still sounds wrong, and when you use them correctly, you will sound so much better!
    Thanks for a very good tour of the various landing sites on Mars!

    Why can’t we send a rover or drone to the Martian extinct volcanoes or canyons? Always seem to go to the most boring places there.

    • @trulyinfamous
      @trulyinfamous 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Money, the amount of different things of scientific interest, and risk. First of all, scientists would love to send rovers all over mars but the money and time simply isn't there to do so. We have to be incredibly strategic about where we put these missions.
      Sending a Rover to a Martian volcano may provide a bit of spectacle, but the amount of different science that can be done there is limited. You could drive the rover around for dozens of kilometers and all you would see is more volcano, and more volcanic rock. Volcanos are a more localized and geologically recent thing, so it covers up a lot of surface which could have been giving us hints as to the geological history of the area.
      A canyon would have a lot more potential, but it would be about the single most difficult terrain on Mars to navigate that I can think of.
      The rover would be more at risk, too. Even with some crazy nontraditional Rover design, a steep mountain provides many more opportunities for a rover to get stuck or damaged than on a flat plain.
      The areas which our rovers have landed are relatively flat with few large obstacles because it mitigates risk and ensures that our incredibly expensive piece of technology can continue to function. The exposed soils and bedrock allow for us to measure and sample Mars in great detail. Scientists don't need spectacular views the same way the public would like them.
      TL;DR
      Our rovers go to seemingly "boring" places because they are low risk for a high reward over time. Our rovers stay safe and can continue to work in scientifically interesting and varied locations. While scientists would absolutely love to send rovers all over Mars, the resources simply aren't there to do so, and thus we have to make the absolute most out of the few missions we can get.
