They need to send a centipede or Boston Dynamics "dog" to explore caves on Mars on the next rover. If they sent Spot, they could call the rover "Rover".
Space travel is crazy sometimes. Imagine if instead of brakes, you slowed your car down by just ejecting the wheels. Thats what they are essentially doing with the sky crane. And yet, its still the best method for the task. Science be crazy yo
9:46 Ohh man... the tracks on the Perseverance rovers wheels are straight.. I suppose someone decided that JPL had left its signature over enough of Mars' surface. Lame... I thought that was ingenious! (If you aren't aware, the asymmetrical and uneven treads on the Curiosity rovers wheels spell out _JPL_ in Morse code - which is epic).
The old wheels broke so perhaps they decided not to play around on the wheels this time. Also, the tracks get covered in dust in a few years so it's not like the moon where they stay forever.
You should have sent an automated digital scanning microscope with it to look for life from the samples. pointless waste to have a sampling arm without an automated digital microscope
Missions like this are the cool side of NASA for sure. Often they're given too many restrictions and stipulations by politicians who don't know anything about space or engineering, but even so they're responsible for a hell of a lot of cutting edge research in some really cool areas!
Me too. and you can see the clear, planned out logical developments of the rovers. Pathfinder (just like the name( was a surface testing probe with a small rover) , groundbreaking at the time. Then the twin rover Spirit & Opportunity , both showing the ability to navigate Mars's surface and be able to care a mobile lab. And Mt goodness did they show the reliability and endurance of the engineering in the climate/conditions of Mars. Curiosity was the culmination of Pathfinder, Spirit & Opportunity experiences to produce a fully functional rover carrying a state-of-art laboratory on board and keep operating for over 8 years. Perseverance the next iterations then builds on 8 years of experience and unforeseen problems & solutions. It's testimony to genuinely long term planning and a clear goal.
Just finished watching this. Excellent, coherent, timely presentation about Curiosity vs. Perseverance. I guess I’m going to have to become a Patreon, because the world needs to understand rocket science...and you do a good-no, great-job explaining things. Bravo.
Everyday Astronaut So, on the 1st I’ll start out as a Pilot and see how it goes. Maybe I’ll climb the remaining steps if I can contribute something useful. Stand by!
Since Mars only has 10% of the atmospheric pressure of Earth the sounds will be very attenuated. Since NASA knows one heck of a lot more than I do, I have to think the microphone will be spec'd to deal with that.
I'm from Northern California where in 2018 the town next to us named Paradise was almost completely destroyed by the Camp Fire & I just learned that the 85 people who died name's are engraved on the plaque at 15:32 along with "Paradise Strong"....That is an absolutely beautiful way to remember them and just to know that their names will be there forever is something that almost brings a tear to my eye when I think about it.

Hey Tim Dodd, the everyday astronaut! Going to Mars, and learning the sun is hot, I love these videos explaining rovers and rockets, I’d save them all in Earth’s collective pockets, They’re well put together and flow real nice, I hope they can bring us some Martian Ice, On Perseverance we’ll see in High Definition, Bringing with it Earth’s great Ambition. Keep up the great work, you’re a hero and preacher, Spreading the love of space like a good teacher, Eyes to the stars, like in the olden days, Showing we’re all the same In our own Earth Ways.
The images from Curiosity allowed me and many others to walk around on surface of Mars in Virtual Reality. Perseverance will make that experience that mugh better using better images and including sounds.
I remember the excitement i felt watching the Curiosity landing live. I cant wait to watch this one. There is just so much more exciting science going on here. And the onboard mics will make this a much more intense show.
came back after the launch. the world was hype to see footage of the landing on a different planet! thank you for going through all the details and differences!
Great job as usual, but there's even more exciting stuff that wasn't covered. The ground penetrating radar, the weather station, laser beams, X-Ray and UV spectrometers (a first on Mars). Also, Moxie, as exciting as it is, isn't the only pre-human experiment. They have a bunch (I think 4-5) samples of potential space suit and visor materials. Unlike all previous missions, Perseverance will attempt to achieve 3 things: 1) Try to find evidence of ancient life (best chance we've ever had which is why I'm most excited), 2) With Moxie, space suit and visor material experiments, pave the way for human life on Mars, 3) Bring Mars to life for the general population with the most advanced cameras ever on Mars, aerial drone footage and sound for the first time!
I'm most excited about the drone. It will be interesting to see if it can fly in such a thin atmosphere. If it does , this could mean a breakthrough in Mars exploration.
@@samburnes9389 It does indeed! I recommend a nice wall mounted map and Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy to tie your understanding of areography together with the help of a gripping narrative.
This one(Perseverance) is more powerful, more flexible & more technologically advanced than that of the earlier one(Curiosity). Noteworthy explanation on the difference. Liked it so much.👍🥰
I don't know how often you read these but I've listened to all the music you've made and it is absolutely wonderful I would support any new music and videos you put out
My name is on Perseverance and I'm really excited about it, but I'm of course very looking forward to those hi-res images, how the drone performs and real SOUND from Mars. Hope it lands safely on the surface next week Thursday.
If Mars had water, a "easy" solution would carry plants to make some photosynthesis on Mars. Sadly, the universe is on hard-mode so we don't have this option.
@@honkhonk8009 That's the actual idea that they are going to test when perseverance get on Mars, sadly it will take alot of time to produce something to make this conversion on a large scale. So don't expect any progress soon.

LOL
I went on a field trip to JPL as a kid and got to see the construction of the Curiosity rover. Coolest memory of my life.
Perseverance should start a TH-cam Vlog when it lands with all those cameras
watching on 16th February, really excited for the 7 Minutes of terror!!
Today’s the day
My name is on the Perseverance and I just remembered because I put it on there so long ago.
What
@@soup-flavored-soup6613 NASA let you put your name on a plaque on the rover. Its something to do with Frequent Flyer!
same here
@@cadenmccorvey4153 oh that’s cool
Imagine if Curiosity and Perseverance rovers met each other on Mars.
Nice thought, it would probably not be practical.
Just think if they did a fist bump
Perseverance be like “I’m you, just better and younger”
It would be cool, but practically useless because that would mean less science. Overlapping areas.
James Nguyen yep
Hey Tim Dodd, the everyday astronaut!
Going to Mars, and learning the sun is hot,
I love these videos explaining rovers and rockets,
I’d save them all in Earth’s collective pockets,
They’re well put together and flow real nice,
I hope they can bring us some Martian Ice,
On Perseverance we’ll see in High Definition,
Bringing with it Earth’s great Ambition.
Keep up the great work, you’re a hero and preacher,
Spreading the love of space like a good teacher,
Eyes to the stars, like in the olden days,
Showing we’re all the same In our own Earth Ways.
Feb 21, 2021. Percy has landed safely. I am waiting for the first picture of a Martian stromatolite. Thanks for the upload.
The images from Curiosity allowed me and many others to walk around on surface of Mars in Virtual Reality.
Perseverance will make that experience that mugh better using better images and including sounds.
Even hearing about this gave me a huge Adrenalin rush!
Edit: I feel happy after watching this!
I Wanna know where you got that electron rocket lol
I believe Rocket Lab sent it to him.
@@NitinMurthy lol

I remember the excitement i felt watching the Curiosity landing live. I cant wait to watch this one. There is just so much more exciting science going on here. And the onboard mics will make this a much more intense show.
came back after the launch. the world was hype to see footage of the landing on a different planet! thank you for going through all the details and differences!
It'd be awesome if the "skycrane" just flew a distance away and landed! Ready to be refueled and flown again or just ready for future study.
"refueled and flown again"
By whom?
@@BlackEpyon How ever gets there first!
@@BlackEpyon by us o don't know what for but a use could be found
I’m really interested in MOXIE, i want to know how it works.
Thank God the public name contest didn't settle for "Marty MacMarsFace"
Watching the video again before touchdown. Go Perseverance gooooo!
17:38 Just casually inserting "Hey, I interviewed Elon Musk and Jim Bridenstine", ha!
You and your crew are the best, Tim! :D
Who's watching after Perseverance landed successfully
me
me
Oh yes
Me
F for oppy
Any chance to see you live from Boca one of these days ? It’s not the same watching starship progress without you !
Great job as usual, but there's even more exciting stuff that wasn't covered. The ground penetrating radar, the weather station, laser beams, X-Ray and UV spectrometers (a first on Mars). Also, Moxie, as exciting as it is, isn't the only pre-human experiment. They have a bunch (I think 4-5) samples of potential space suit and visor materials. Unlike all previous missions, Perseverance will attempt to achieve 3 things: 1) Try to find evidence of ancient life (best chance we've ever had which is why I'm most excited), 2) With Moxie, space suit and visor material experiments, pave the way for human life on Mars, 3) Bring Mars to life for the general population with the most advanced cameras ever on Mars, aerial drone footage and sound for the first time!
Love your content man, I really wish you the growth you deserve.
Transcript of audio captured by PERSEVERANCE from Mars: “One small bruh moment for man, one absolute unit of a bruh moment for mankind”
Oh wow, what a timing. Opened yt for the first time today and this was released 50 seconds ago xd
Best thing you can expect when opening TH-cam
Getting closer to 1 million everyday! Been here since 5k :)
I'm most excited about the drone.
It will be interesting to see if it can fly in such a thin atmosphere. If it does , this could mean a breakthrough in Mars exploration.
Very good video tim been watching you since day one keep up the good work love the new set up 👌
So excited to see this go down!!! Hopefully at a controlled speed, that is.
Pointy end up and flamey end down we hope!
Isn't "Arcadia Planitia" the spot where the Mars base in the film: "The Martian" was?
No, that was Acidalia Planitia. Lots of planitiae on Mars start with the letter a, confusingly enough. :)
Gazpachian Ok, thank you for responding.
Gazpachian that would make aerography facts difficult to memorize
@@samburnes9389 It does indeed! I recommend a nice wall mounted map and Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy to tie your understanding of areography together with the help of a gripping narrative.
Gazpachian yeah, I was always struggling to remember where the cities and features were while reading the books.
Perseverance touched down successfully. And the end of the live stream lead me here. I couldn't be happier rn.
Dude...This Video was Worth it and congratulations on the new Studio Upgrade
This one(Perseverance) is more powerful, more flexible & more technologically advanced than that of the earlier one(Curiosity).
Noteworthy explanation on the difference. Liked it so much.👍🥰
Fun fact:ingenuty contains a small piece of a cloth from the wright brothers plane the very first airplane in history

Just here to remind that Perseverance is landing in 16 days 😲😲
*Fingers Crossed*
4 days

TOMORROW

For those of us interested in the upgraded rover , this video is the best ever.
I don't know how often you read these but I've listened to all the music you've made and it is absolutely wonderful I would support any new music and videos you put out
Looks like real science carried the decimal point a couple times more than i did! I have to love the science involved! Great job!
1 day before landing. Is anyone here?
I'm soooooo hyped
It’s done and it was awesome
11 hours after landing and I’m still in awe
Never been so early for a video! Greets from Argentina!!
that is Frickin insane A drone on mars!! fugg dude i love living in this time...
Just imagine what it’s gonna be like in 100 years
Perseverance's connection is better than my cellular data hahah
My name is on Perseverance and I'm really excited about it, but I'm of course very looking forward to those hi-res images, how the drone performs and real SOUND from Mars. Hope it lands safely on the surface next week Thursday.
If Mars had water, a "easy" solution would carry plants to make some photosynthesis on Mars.
Sadly, the universe is on hard-mode so we don't have this option.
Good idea that's all
Or we could just split the oxygen from the hydrogen and have fuel and breathing stuff.
Just like I don't play KSP on.
@@honkhonk8009
That's the actual idea that they are going to test when perseverance get on Mars, sadly it will take alot of time to produce something to make this conversion on a large scale.
So don't expect any progress soon.
